title: Complete genome sequence of an H3N2 canine influenza virus from dogs in Jiangsu, China.
abstract: A canine influenza virus (CIV) strain of avian origin designated A/Canine/Jiangsu/06/2010 (H3N2) was isolated from dogs exhibiting severe respiratory disease in Jiangsu, China. We announce the complete genome sequence of this viral strain and report major findings from the genomic analysis. This sequence will help us understand the molecular characteristics and evolutionary of H3N2 CIV in China.
