Extends EMCV group 1 to aardvark host; leaves open zoonotic or myocarditis implications in new regions.
The study provides the complete genome sequence of a porcine encephalomyocarditis virus strain isolated from an aardvark in China, classifying it into group 1.
Chang et al. (2014) studied this question. Encephalomyocarditis virus strain HNXX13, isolated from an aardvark in central China, was fully sequenced and phylogenetically classified as belonging to virus group 1.
