Abstract

The complete genome sequence of a novel pseudorabies virus, strain HNB, isolated from a dead weaned pig in China, was determined using next-generation sequencing. The viral genome sequence of HNB shared 90.6% nucleotide similarity with that of the traditional vaccine strain, the Bartha strain.
