Identification of novel bat coronaviruses sheds light on the evolutionary origins of SARS-CoV-2 and related viruses

2021-03-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Although a variety of SARS-CoV-2 related coronaviruses have been identified, the evolutionary origins of this virus remain elusive. We describe a meta-transcriptomic study of 411 samples collected from 23 bat species in a small (~1100 hectare) region in Yunnan province, China, from May 2019 to November 2020. We identified coronavirus contigs in 40 of 100 sequencing libraries, including seven repr...
