Discovery of Bat Coronaviruses through Surveillance and Probe Capture-Based Next-Generation Sequencing

Active surveillance is both urgent and essential to predict and mitigate the emergence of bat-origin CoV in humans and livestock. However, great genetic diversity increases the chance of homologous recombination among CoVs. Performing targeted PCR, a common practice for many surveillance studies, wo...
