Complete genome sequences of two <i>Cressdnaviricota</i> viruses identified in respiratory tract samples from forest musk deer in China
We identified two circular single-stranded DNA viruses from forest musk deer in China through metagenomic analysis. Phylogenetic results suggest they represent unclassified <i>Cressdnaviricota</i> lineages. This study highlights the diversity of the deer's respiratory virome and underscores the importance of wildlife virus surveillance for conservation and public health.
