As part of our ongoing program in the discovery of viruses associated with emerging infections, we continued our surveillance for novel partetraviruses in animals closely related to humans. In the present study, bovine and ovine samples were selected for targeted screening, as both domestic cattle and sheep are important food animals in Southern China. PCR screening of the animal samples identified a novel ovine partetraviruses as well as a new genotype of bovine partetravirus, and their nearly fulllength genome sequences were obtained. Genomic and phylogenetic analyses of the new viruses confirmed them to be closely related to the previously identified partetraviruses.
