Completed genome segments of Maciel, Lechiguanas, and Laguna Negra orthohantaviruses
New World orthohantaviruses are rodent-borne tri-segmented viruses that cause hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome in humans in the Americas. Molecular diagnostics for orthohantaviruses can be improved with more sequence data. Reported here are completed genomes for Lechiguanas, Maciel, and Laguna Negra viruses.
