Wastewater-derived enterovirus C116 in France shows close genetic ties to African strains.
Wastewater surveillance successfully identified and characterized the complete genome of a rarely reported enterovirus type C116 strain in France.
Wastewater surveillance allowed the detection of an enterovirus (EV) type rarely reported in clinical settings. We detected an EV-C116 strain in a wastewater sample in France and characterized its complete genome. This virus was genetically closely related to African strains but distantly related to the only complete genome previously described.

Bisseux et al. (2023) studied Enterovirus C116. Wastewater surveillance and genome sequencing was evaluated on Complete genome characterization. Complete genome sequencing of an enterovirus C116 strain from wastewater in France revealed close genetic relation to African strains but distant relation to a previously described complete genome.
