Differential infection patterns and recent evolutionary origins of equine hepaciviruses in donkeys

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major human pathogen. Genetically related viruses in animals suggest a zoonotic origin of HCV. The closest relative of HCV is found in horses (termed equine hepacivirus, EqHV). However, low EqHV genetic diversity implies relatively recent acquisition of EqHV by horse...
