Complete genome sequence of human echovirus 20 strain 812/ YN/CHN/2010, associated with severe handfoot- and-mouth disease

Abstract

Human echovirus 20 (E-20) belongs to the Human enterovirus B (HEV-B) species and is often detected in nonpolio enterovirus cases of acute flaccid paralysis. We determined the complete genome of strain 812/YN/CHN/2010, isolated from a child with severe hand-foot-and-mouth disease in Yunnan, China, in 2010.
