hongkongensis genomic DNA (between them covering approximately 60% of the entire LAP region), which suggests a high degree of LAP sequence conservation between the two species (data not shown).
Pairwise comparison of the avian strains with these 2 ungulate isolates that represent the 2 previously known genotypes of BDV, strain V, NC_001607 (9), and No/98, AJ311524 (10), indicated <70% sequence conservation at the nucleotide level and <80% at the overall amino acid level (Figure 2, Table 2).
Modest sequence conservation within gene 1 has enabled the design of oligonucleotide primers for use in diagnostic reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reactions, which will be useful for the detection of new coronaviruses.
