To further investigate this prospect, total RNA was extracted from RNAlater\u00ae-preserved lung tissues of 277 bats (representing five families, 14 genera and 40 species), captured in Myanmar and Vietnam during 2013\u20132016. Hantavirus RNA was detected in two of 15 black-bearded tomb bats (Taphozous melanopogon) and two of 26 Pomona roundleaf bats (Hipposideros pomona) in Myanmar, and in three of six ashy leaf-nosed bats (Hipposideros cineraceus) in Vietnam. Pair-wise alignment and comparison of coding regions of the S, M, and L segments of hantaviruses from Taphozous and Hipposideros bats revealed high nucleotide and amino acid sequence similarities to prototype L\u00e1ib\u012bn virus (LAIV) and Xu\u00e2n S\u01a1n virus (XSV), respectively. Phylogenetic analyses, generated by maximum-likelihood and Bayesian methods, showed a geographic clustering of LAIV strains from China and Myanmar, but not of XSV strains from China and Vietnam. These findings confirm that the black-bearded tomb bat is the natural reservoir of LAIV, and that more than one species of Hipposideros bats can host XSV.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/v11030228","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,8]],"date-time":"2019-03-08T04:58:35Z","timestamp":1552021115000},"page":"228","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Molecular Phylogeny of Mobatviruses (Hantaviridae) in Myanmar and Vietnam"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5865-0717","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Satoru","family":"Arai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Disease Surveillance Center, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fuka","family":"Kikuchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Disease Surveillance Center, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan"},{"name":"Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Tokyo University of Science, Tokyo 162-8601, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3157-1370","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Saw","family":"Bawm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology and Parasitology, University of Veterinary Science, Yezin, Nay Pyi Taw 15013, Myanmar"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nguy\u1ec5n Tr\u01b0\u1eddng","family":"S\u01a1n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, Hanoi, Vietnam"},{"name":"Graduate University of Science and Technology, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kyaw San","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Aquaculture and Aquatic Disease, University of Veterinary Science, Yezin, Nay Pyi Taw 15013, Myanmar"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"V\u01b0\u01a1ng T\u00e2n","family":"T\u00fa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, Hanoi, Vietnam"},{"name":"Graduate University of Science and Technology, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Keita","family":"Aoki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Disease Surveillance Center, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan"},{"name":"Department of Liberal Arts, Faculty of Science, Tokyo University of Science, Tokyo 162-8601, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kimiyuki","family":"Tsuchiya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Bioresources, Applied Biology Co., Ltd., Tokyo 107-0062, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Keiko","family":"Tanaka-Taya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Disease Surveillance Center, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shigeru","family":"Morikawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Science, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kazunori","family":"Oishi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Disease Surveillance Center, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo 162-8640, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard","family":"Yanagihara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pacific Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases Research, John A.
