Full EMCV BD2 genome now available for pigs; extends animal model resources while leaving human translation open.
Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) causes acute myocarditis in young pigs or reproductive failure in sows, and it is divided into two main groups. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of EMCV strain BD2, which belongs to group I.
