Abstract

The Tahyna virus (TAHV) is an important human pathogen in the Bunyaviridae family. To date, only the S and M segments of this virus have been sequenced, but the sequence of the L segment hasn't been established yet. In this study, we sequenced 963 nucleotides of the L segment of TAHV, comprising pre-motif A and motif A in region 3 of the RNA polymerase gene.
