Abstract excerpt
Astroviruses (AstVs) are major causative agents of gastroenteritis in children and have been reported in many species. Canine astrovirus (CaAstV), as an enteric pathogen, has been widely detected worldwide, but little is known about their genetic diversity and evolution, partly owing to a lack of genomic data. Here, we sequenced 12 nearly full-length CaAstV genomes to address the gap in knowledge. We found 14...
