title: Complete genome sequence of the first isolate of genotype C bovine parainfluenza virus type 3 in Japan.
abstract: Bovine parainfluenza virus type 3 (BPIV3) isolates are classified into three genotypes (BPIV3a to -c). Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the BPIV3c isolate for the first time in Japan. Our results indicate that new primer sets will be required to detect all genotypes of BPIV3 strains.
