| natural occurrence and characterization of two ires elements in a novel virus, canine picodicistrovirus, in the picornavirus-like superfamily. | dicistroviridae and picornaviridae are two phylogenetically related families of positive-sense single-stranded rna viruses in the picornavirus-like superfamily with similar gene contents but different genome organizations and hosts. in a surveillance study involving 1472 samples from 368 dogs over a 22-month period, we identified a novel picornavirus-like virus from 47 fecal and urine samples using rt-pcr. sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of three complete genomes revealed that although it s ... | 2011 | 22205729 |
