First Complete Genome Sequence of a Feline Alphacoronavirus 1 Strain from Brazil.

We identified a strain of Alphacoronavirus 1, FCoV-SB22, from a pool of fecal samples from domestic cats from a rural settlement in the municipality of Santa Bárbara, Pará, Brazil. The nucleotide identity with feline coronavirus was 91.5%.

Proposed New Strain of Canine from Fecal Samples of Brazilian Domestic Dogs.

A proposed new strain of canine was identified in fecal samples of domestic dogs from a rural community located in the municipality of Peixe-Boi, Pará, Brazil. The nucleotide identity was 92.3% similar to other representatives of the family , genus , and species , which suggests that this is possibly a new strain within this species.

Rotavirus A in wild and domestic animals from areas with environmental degradation in the Brazilian Amazon.

Acute gastroenteritis is one of the main causes of mortality in humans and young animals. Domestic and mainly wild animals such as bats, small rodents and birds are highly diversified animals in relation to their habitats and ecological niches and are widely distributed geographically in environments of forest fragmentation in some areas of the Amazon, being considered important sources for viruses that affect humans and other animals. Due to the anthropical activities, these animals changed their natural habitat and adapted to urbanized environments, thus representing risks to human and animal health.
