ABSTRACT We report here the complete genome sequence (GenBank KP997032) of rabies virus strain RABV/ Ursus arctos /Russia/Primorye/PO-01/2014, isolated in November 2014 from a brown bear ( Ursus arctos ) that attacked a person in Primorsky Krai (Russian Federation). This strain was clustered into the Eurasian genetic subgroup of genotype 1 (street rage).
