Abstract:
All ten genome segments of a field strain (isolate ID: IND2016/118) of Bluetongue virus serotype 12 (BTV-12), isolated from affected sheep from village Pataudi, Gurugram, Haryana, northern India were sequenced. The total genome size was 19,186 bp. Sequence comparisons of complete genome except Seg-2, Seg-5, Seg-6, Seg-7 and Seg-10, showed that IND2016/118 belonged to the major eastern topotype of BTV.
Keywords: Bluetongue virus, BTV-12, Complete genome, Sequence, India.
