Pathogenesis and vertical transmission of a transplacental rat cytomegalovirus.

abstract：BACKGROUND:More than a decade after the outbreak of human coronaviruses (HCoVs) SARS in Guangdong province and Hong Kong SAR of China in 2002, there is still no reoccurrence, but the evolution and recombination of the coronaviruses in this region are still unknown. Therefore, surveillance on the prevalence and the viru...
