Genetic diversity of parvovirus isolates from dogs and wild animals in China

J Wildl Dis. 2011 Oct;47(4):1036-9. doi: 10.7589/0090-3558-47.4.1036.

Abstract

We isolated three new parvovirus variants in China. The isolate from a blue fox was related to feline parvovirus, but possessed a mutation of VP2 residue A300P. Isolates from a raccoon dog and a masked civet were antigenically similar to canine parvovirus-2a but had a substitution of VP2 residue G300S.
