Genome Sequence of a Novel Picorna-Like RNA Virus from Feces of the Antarctic Fur Seal ( Arctocephalus gazella )

ABSTRACT A novel RNA virus was detected in a fecal sample collected from the Antarctic fur seal ( Arctocephalus gazella ) in King George Island, Antarctica. The almost-complete genome sequence reveals two open reading frames and a dicistrovirus-like gene order.
