Complete Genome Sequence of the Circulatory Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Serotype Asia1 in Bangladesh

Abstract
The complete genome sequence of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotype Asia1 isolated from Bangladesh is reported here. Genome analysis revealed amino acid substitutions in the VP1 antigenic region and deletions in both the 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) compared to the genome of the existing vaccine strain (GenBank accession no. AY304994).
