Complete Coding Sequences of Six Toscana Virus Strains Isolated from Human Patients in France

Genome Announc. 2016 May 26;4(3):e00454-16. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00454-16.

Abstract

Toscana virus (TOSV) is an arthropod-borne phlebovirus belonging to the Sandfly fever Naples virus species (genus Phlebovirus, family Bunyaviridae). Here, we report the complete coding sequences of six TOSV strains isolated from human patients having acquired the infection in southeastern France during a 12-year period.
