Abstract
Gyrovirus galga1 (GyVg1), a member of the Anelloviridae family and Gyrovirus genus, has been detected in chicken and human tissue samples. In this study, the DNA of GyVg1-related gyroviruses in the sera of six dogs and three cats from Central and Eastern China was identified using PCR. Alignment analysis between the nine obtained and reference GyVg1 strains revealed that the genome identity ranged from 99.20% (DOG03 and DOG04 strains) to 96.17% (DOG01 and DOG06 strains). Six recombination events were predicted in multiple strains, including DOG01, DOG05, DOG06, CAT01, CAT02, and CAT03. The predicted major and minor parents of DOG05 came from Brazil. The DOG06 strain is potentially recombined from strains originating from humans and cats, whereas DOG01 is potentially recombined from G17 (ferret-originated) and Ave3 (chicken-originated), indicating that transmissions across species and regions may occur. Sixteen representative amino acid mutation sites were identified: nine in VP1 (12 R/H, 114S/N, 123I/M, 167 L/P, 231 P/S, 237 P/L, 243 R/W, 335 T/A, and 444S/N), four in VP2 (81 A/P, 103 R/H, 223 R/G, and 228 A/T), and three in VP3 (38 M/I, 61 A/T, and 65 V/A). These mutations were only harbored in strains identified in dogs and cats in this study. Whether this is related to host tropism needs further investigation. In this study, GyVg1 was identified in the sera of dogs and cats, and the molecular characteristics prompted the attention of public health.

Poult Sci 2024; 103:104149. [PMID: 39154608 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.104149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 07/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Gyrovirus galga1 (GyVg1), formerly known as AGV2, was initially identified in chickens in southern Brazil. The prevalence of GyVg1 from 2021 to 2024 in 28 out of the 63 poultry farms located in Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan, Hunan, Shandong, and Hubei provinces in eastern and central China was detected via PCR. The complete genomes of the 28 strains were sequenced and exhibited a full length of 2,376 bp. Similarity analysis of these strains did not suggest definite correlation with evolutionary branching and geographical distribution. Compared with the reference GyVg1 strains, HN2202 shared the highest similarity of 99.71% with HLJ1511 (chicken-originated) from northeastern China in 2015 to 2016. Recombination analysis revealed that AH2102 was a potential recombinant of peafowl-originated HN2019-PF1 and chicken-originated HLJ1506-2, whereas HN2304 was a recombinant of peafowl-originated HN2019-PF1 and the Hungarian ferret strain G13. Mutation site analysis of the capsid protein revealed that highly mutated regions occurred between sites 288 to 316 and 383 to 419. These results indicate that GyVg1 may have undergone an interspecies transmission, which involved complex mutations and recombination. This study may provide a reference for subsequent investigations targeting the molecular epidemiology and viral evolution of GyVg1.

Abstract
Gyroviruses are small single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses that are largely associated with birds. Chicken anemia virus is the most extensively studied gyrovirus due to its disease impact on the poultry industry. However, we know much less about gyroviruses infecting other avian species. To investigate gyroviruses infecting waterfowl, we determined six complete genome sequences that fall into three gyrovirus groups, referred to as waterfowl gyrovirus 1 (n = 3), 2 (n = 2), and 3 (n = 1), in organs from hunter-harvested waterfowl from Arizona (USA). The waterfowl gyrovirus 1 variants were identified in multiple organs of a single American wigeon and represent a tentative new species. The waterfowl gyrovirus 2 variants were identified in the livers of two American wigeons and share >70% VP1 nucleotide sequence identity with gyrovirus 9, previously identified in the spleen of a Brazilian Pekin duck (MT318123) and a human fecal sample (KP742975). Waterfowl gyrovirus 3 was identified in a northern pintail spleen sample, and it shares >73% VP1 nucleotide sequence identity with two gyrovirus 13 sequences previously identified in Brazilian Pekin duck spleens (MT318125 and MT318127). These gyroviruses are the first to be identified in waterfowl in North America, as well as in American wigeons and northern pintails.

[PMID: 38295496 PMCID: PMC10846400 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2023.103397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Since 2011, the Gyrovirus galga 1 (GyVg1, previously recognized as avian gyrovirus 2) strain has extensively been detected worldwide. However, because there are no up-to-date reports of examining the distribution of GyVg1 in flocks in southern China, the epidemiology of this virus is unknown. To investigate the prevalence and genetic evolution of GyVg1, a total of 2,077 field samples collected from 113 chicken farms in 6 provinces in southern China during 2020 to 2022 were tested. Among them, 315 samples (315/2,077, 15.17%) were positive for GyVg1 by PCR. The positive rate of GyVg1 detection between different regions of southern China ranged from 11.69% (Guangdong) to 22.46% (Yunnan). The correlation between GyVg1 prevalence and sample source groups was analyzed, the results showing that the highest seroprevalence of GyVg1 was observed in visceral tissues (27.34%, 187/684), significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of feather shafts (17.22%, 31/180), serums (8.85%, 78/881), and fecal (5.72%, 19/332). Additionally, the complete genomes of 10 GyVg1 strains were sequenced and analyzed, which showed nucleotide identities of 96.2 to 99.9%, 97.0 to 100.0%, 95.2 to 100.0%, and 95.7 to 99.8% in the complete genome, ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3, respectively, and 94.4 to 100.0%, 91.3 to 100.0%, and 98.7 to 100.0% amino acid similarity in the VP2, VP3, and VP1 proteins, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the whole genome showed that 10 GyVg1 strains belong to genotype I, and one strain belongs to genotype III. Sequence analysis showed several amino acid substitutions in both the VP1, VP2, and VP3 proteins. Our results enhance the understanding of the molecular characterization of GyVg1 infection in southern China. In conclusion, this study reveals the high prevalence and high genetic differentiation of GyVg1 in Chinese chickens and suggests that the potential impact of GyVg1 on the chicken industry may be of concern.

Abstract
The king ratsnake (Elaphe carinata) of the genus Elaphe is a common large, non-venomous snake widely distributed in Southeast and East Asia. It is an economically important farmed species. As a non-venomous snake, the king ratsnake predates venomous snakes, such as cobras and pit vipers. However, the immune and digestive mechanisms of the king ratsnake remain unclear. Despite their economic and research importance, we lack genomic resources that would benefit toxicology, phylogeography, and immunogenetics studies. Here, we used single-tube long fragment read sequencing to generate the first contiguous genome of a king ratsnake from Huangshan City, Anhui province, China. The genome size is 1.56 GB with a scaffold N50 of 6.53M. The total length of the genome is approximately 621 Mb, while the repeat content is 42.26%. Additionally, we predicted 22,339 protein-coding genes, including 22,065 with functional annotations. Our genome is a potentially useful addition to those available for snakes.

Abstract
Gyrovirus galga 1 (GyVg1, previously recognized as avian gyrovirus 2), which was first reported in chicken in 2011, is a new member of the genus Gyrovirus. The presence of GyVg1 has also been confirmed in different regions of Europe, South America, Africa, and Asia, indicating its global distribution. However, because there are no reports of examining the distribution of GyVg1 in animals in Japan, the epidemiology of this virus is unknown. In this study, we attempted to retrospectively detect GyVg1 in cryopreserved chicken materials derived from different two commercial broiler flocks in 1997. The GyVg1 genome was detected in organ materials derived from both flocks by PCR. GyVg1 detected in both flocks was classified into four genetic groups by analyzing the nucleotide sequences of the detected PCR products. These results suggest that diverse GyVg1 strains were present in commercial chicken flocks as early as 1997 in Japan.

Abstract
The Gyrovirus genus consists of nonenveloped, icosahedral viruses with small circular single-stranded DNA genomes. Gyroviruses have been detected in diverse hosts, including humans, chickens, rodents, and cats. Two Gyroviruses were detected in canine serum samples using PCR in this study. The results indicated that four serum samples were positive for CAV (0.28%, 2/700) or AGV2 (0.28%, 2/700). Additionally, recombination analysis showed that AGV2 and CAV might have originated from the recombination of viruses similar to those detected in chickens and humans. We detected a total of 14 mutations in CAV VP1 amino acid sequences and identified new mutations at positions 31, 388, 390, 399, and 421 for the first time. The identification of T390C, C912T, T1230C, and T1297C mutations in AGV2 VP1, R93C mutations in AGV2 VP2, and R58C mutations AGV2 VP3 indicated that the differences might be related to a transboundary movement among hosts, which requires further elucidation. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first report of an AGV2-infected dog in China, suggesting that the cross-species transmission of viruses with circular single-stranded DNA genomes is a public health concern.

Abstract
A novel gyrovirus was detected in an intestinal specimen of a common pheasant that died due to poult enteritis and mortality syndrome. The genome of the pheasant-associated gyrovirus (PAGyV) is 2353 nucleotides (nt) long and contains putative genes for the VP1, VP2, and VP3 proteins in an arrangement that is typical for gyroviruses. Gyrovirus-specific motifs were identified in both the coding region and the intergenic region of the PAGyV genome. The VP1 of PAGyV shares up to 67.6% pairwise nt sequence identity with reference sequences and forms a distinct branch in the phylogenetic tree. Thus, according to the recently described species demarcation criteria, PAGyV belongs to a novel species in the genus Gyrovirus, family Anelloviridae, for which we propose the name "Gyrovirus phaco 1".

Taxonomic updates for the genus Gyrovirus (family Anelloviridae): recognition of several new members and establishment of species demarcation criteria. Arch Virol 2021; 166:2937-2942. [PMID: 34347169 DOI: 10.1007/s00705-021-05194-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
The genus Gyrovirus was assigned to the family Anelloviridae in 2017 with only one recognized species, Chicken anemia virus. Over the last decade, many diverse viruses related to chicken anemia virus have been identified but not classified. Here, we provide a framework for the classification of new species in the genus Gyrovirus and communicate the establishment of nine new species. We adopted the 'Genus + freeform epithet' binomial system for the naming of these species.

Abstract
Wild birds carry a number of infectious agents, some of which may have pathogenic potential for the host and others species, including humans. Domestic pigeons (Columba livia) are important targets of study since these increasingly cohabit urban spaces, being possible spillover sources of pathogens to humans. In the present study, two genomes (PiGyV_Tq/RS/Br and PiGyV_RG/RS/Br), representative of Gyrovirus genus, family Anelloviridae, were detected in sera of free-living pigeons collected in Southern Brazil. The genomes exhibit less than 50% identity to previously described members of Gyrovirus genus, suggesting that they constitute a new viral species circulating in pigeons, to which the name "pigeon gyrovirus (PiGyV)" is proposed. The current study characterizes these two PiGyV genomes which, to date, are the first gyrovirus species identified in domestic pigeons.
