Genome Announc. 2016 Aug 4;4(4):e00750-16. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00750-16.

Abstract

Zika virus belongs to the genus Flavivirus, and its spread remains an international public health emergency. In this report, we describe the obtainment and molecular characterization of a complete viral genome through the direct metagenomic analysis from saliva from an autochthonous transmission case in Mexico.
