| Abstract: | Since early 2017, several outbreaks of Seneca Valley virus (SVV) infection have re‐emerged in China. We report the identification of novel SVV KS15‐01‐like strains showing a notable distinction with previous Chinese SVV strains. The determined SVV strains are currently causing new outbreaks in two provinces in China where no SVV infection has been reported previously, implying the increased epidemic regions and potential threat to local pig breeds of SVV in China. |
