Molecular detection of two new putative species of gammaherpesvirus in petaurid possums

A molecular survey of herpesviruses in Australian native mammals was conducted, spanning 260 individuals from 27 species. Among the herpesviruses detected, a putative new gammaherpesvirus species was detected in the yellow‐bellied glider (Petaurus australis), and another in the critically endangered...

description A molecular survey of herpesviruses in Australian native mammals was conducted, spanning 260 individuals from 27 species. Among the herpesviruses detected, a putative new gammaherpesvirus species was detected in the yellow‐bellied glider (Petaurus australis), and another in the critically endangered Leadbeater's possum (Gymnobelideus leadbeateri). In addition, the known host range of the putative species macropodid gammaherpesvirus 3 (MaHV‐3) is herein extended to the western grey kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus). These findings expand our understanding of herpesviruses in Australian mammals and may inform biosecurity protocols for captive and translocated populations.
