ABSTRACT
In this study, we detected and genetically characterized rat bocavirus (RBoV) carried in 496 murine rodents that were captured in four provinces in China between May 2015 and May 2017. RBoV-positive samples were found in all four provinces, with a total positive rate of 24.8% (123/496) in throat swabs and 58.1% (286/492) in fecal samples. Twelve nearly full-length genome sequences of RBoV were determined, and the average sequence identity was 96.2%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that RBoVs formed a distinct clade that was distinguishable from the bocaviruses discovered in humans and other animals.
