• it can infect diverse breeds of farmed and feral mink, in addition to other mustelids (e.g., ferrets, otters), raccoons, and foxes ( 1 , 2 ). (cdc.gov)
  • We temporarily named it gray fox amdovirus (GFADV). (cdc.gov)
  • Phylogenetic analyses of gray fox amdovirus (GFADV) (red dots) and Aleutian mink disease virus (AMDV) based on the complete amino acid sequence of nonstructural protein 1 region (A) and viral protein 1 region (B). The neighbor-joining method was used with p -distance and 1,000 bootstrap replicates. (nih.gov)
  • Nearly full genome characterization and phylogenetic analyses showed this parvovirus (provisionally named gray fox amdovirus) to be distantly related to Aleutian mink disease virus, representing the second viral species in the Amdovirus genus. (cdc.gov)
  • Open reading frames (ORFs) in gray fox amdovirus genome. (cdc.gov)
  • 2 small middle ORFs (MORF1 and MORF2) are indicated by gray bars. (nih.gov)
  • Phylogenetic analysis indicated that this virus, designated as gray fox amdovirus, is a new amdovirus species, only the second for that genus. (cdc.gov)
