Implication

First picornavirus detected in marine mammals; leaves open zoonotic surveillance needs and new genus validation.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Ringed seals (Phoca hispida), n=108 collected in 2000 to 2002
I
Intervention
Sequence-independent PCR, subcloning, and sequencing of viral nucleic acids
O
Outcome
Full genome sequence and phylogenetic characterization of the novel RNA virus (SePV-1)

The identification of SePV-1 represents the first sequence-confirmed picornavirus in a marine mammal, proposing a new genus in the Picornaviridae family.
