Extensive genetic diversity of bat-borne polyomaviruses reveals inter-family host-switching events

2019-05-03

Abstract excerpt

Polyomaviruses (PyVs) are small, double-stranded DNA tumor viruses carried by diverse vertebrates. PyVs have previously been considered highly host restricted in mammalian hosts, with host-switching events thought rare or nonexistent. Prior investigations have revealed short-range host-switching events of PyVs in two different African bat species within the horseshoe bat genus Rhinolophus . Herein, we have conduc...
