Detection and genomic characterisation of a novel hantavirus in Australian dolphins

2026-06-08

Abstract excerpt

We report the detection of a novel hantavirus in the lung tissue of two diseased Australian dolphins with histopathological changes. Phylogenetic analysis placed this virus within the genus Mobatvirus . This highlights the ability of hantaviruses to infect non-terrestrial mammals and the potential role of marine mammals as one health sentinels.
