Genetic Diversity and Molecular Evolution of Hepatitis E Virus Within the Genus Chirohepevirus in Bats

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a major zoonotic pathogen causing hepatitis E, with strains identified in various animal species, including pigs, wild boar, rabbits, deer, camels, and rats. These variants are capable of crossing species barriers and infecting humans. HEV belongs to the family Hepeviridae...
