Chipmunk parvovirus is distinct from members in the genus Erythrovirus of the family Parvoviridae. [PDF]
The transcription profile of chipmunk parvovirus (ChpPV), a tentative member of the genus Erythrovirus in the subfamily Parvovirinae of the family Parvoviridae, was characterized by transfecting a nearly full-length genome.

Geographic and Molecular Insights Into Bat Diversity and Virus Distribution in China: Implications for Public Health. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bats are key reservoirs of zoonotic viruses, yet comprehensive data on their diversity and viral carriage across China remain limited. This study compiled national‐level data on bat taxonomy, distribution, and associated viruses by integrating information from peer‐reviewed publications (PubMed), the ZOVER database, and cytochrome oxidase I ...
