摘要

Kobuvirus RNA was found in 6.6 % (13/198) of stool specimens from roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) captured during the regular hunting season. Upon sequence analysis of a fragment of the 3D gene, nine strains displayed the highest nucleotide sequence identity (91.2-97.4 %) to bovine kobuviruses previously detected in either diarrhoeic or asymptomatic calves. Interestingly, four strains were genetically related to the newly discovered caprine kobuviruses (84.2-87.6 % nucleotide identity) identified in black goats in Korea.
