We report the identification and analysis of a full sequence of a novel polyomavirus from a brushtail possum (<i>Trichosurus vulpecula</i>) termed possum polyomavirus (PPyV). The sequence was obtained from the next-generation sequencing assembly during an investigation into the aetiological agent for a neurological disease of possums termed wobbly possum disease (WPD), but the virus was not aetiologically involved in WPD. The PPyV genome was 5,224 nt long with the organisation typical for polyom ...[more]
