Patent ID: 7291452

Claim:
An isolated nucleic acid comprising nucleic acids selected from the group consisting of: an isolated polynucleotide comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, an isolated full-length erythroviral genomic nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence which hybridizes under stringent conditions of hybridization for 3 to 24 hours in a 1×SSC buffer containing 50% formamide at 42° C. and three washes of 15 minutes in a 2×SSC buffer at 60° C. with SEQ ID NO:1; and an isolated full-length erythroviral genomic nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence which hybridizes under stringent conditions of, hybridization for 3 to 24 hours in a 1×SSC buffer containing 50% formamide at 42° C. and three washes of 15 minutes in a 2×SSC buffer at 60° C. with a polynucleotide sequence consisting of: SEQ ID NO:45-80, SEQ ID NO:81, SEQ ID NO:83, SEQ ID NO:85, SEQ ID NO:87, SEQ ID NO:89, SEQ ID NO:91, SEQ ID NO:93, SEQ ID NO:108, SEQ ID NO:110, SEQ ID NO:117, SEQ ID NO:118, SEQ ID NO:119 or SEQ ID NO:120.
