Origin and evolution of emerging Liao ning Virus (genus Seadornavirus, family Reoviridae).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Liao ning virus (LNV) is a member of the genus Seadornavirus, family Reoviridae and has been isolated from kinds of vectors in Asia and Australia. However, there are no systematic studies describe the molecular genetic evolution and migration of LNVs. With the development of bioinformatics, viral genetic data combining the information of virus isolation time and locations could be integrated to infer the virus evolution and spread in nature.

Methods

Here, a phylogenetic and phylogeographic analysis using Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations was conducted on the LNVs isolated from a variety of vectors during 1990-2014 to identify the evolution and migration patterns of LNVs.

Results

The results demonstrated that the LNV could be divided into 3 genot
