Bats host diverse parvoviruses as possible origin of mammalian dependoparvoviruses and source for bat–swine interspecies transmission
6 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
Compared to the enormous species diversity of bats, relatively few parvoviruses have been reported. We detected diverse and potentially novel parvoviruses from bats in Hong Kong and mainland China. Parvoviruses belonging to Amdoparvovirus, Bocaparvovirus and Dependoparvovirus were detected in alimentary, liver and spleen samples from 16 different chiropteran species of five families by PCR.
