In this study, a novel vesivirus (family Caliciviridae) was detected and characterized in faecal and tissue (blood and spleen) specimens collected from three (23.1%) out of 13 European badgers (Meles meles) in Hungary that were tested using RT-PCR and sequencing methods. The complete genome of the vesivirus strain European badger/B40/2021/HUN (OQ161773) is 8,375 nucleotides in length. The ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3 proteins have 81.1%, 70.5%, and 64.2% amino acid sequence identity, respectively, to th ...[more]
