Cost-effective complete genome sequencing using the MinION platform for identification of recombinant enteroviruses

Enteroviruses (EVs) are a group of viruses that cause various human illnesses. While the CODEHOP (COnsensus-DEgenerate Hybrid Oligonucleotide Primer) method can generate VP1 gene fragments for enterovirus genotyping, it is unable to detect recombinant strains. Recent advances in viral genome sequenc...
