Abstract excerpt
B19 Parvovirus (B19V) has been considered for a long period of time as the unique human virus belonging to the genus Erythrovirus. The genetic diversity of B19V isolates has been shown to be very low (<2% nucleotide divergence). The isolation of a variant (V9 strain), with a sequence markedly distinct from that of B19V (>13% nucleotide divergence) led to specify the classification of this virus family....
