The first full-genome sequence of a hare calicivirus (HaCV), recently characterized as a novel member of the Caliciviridae , is described. This presumed nonpathogenic lagovirus is 7,433 nucleotides long, shows the same genomic organization as that of other lagoviruses, and has the highest nucleotide identity (79%) with pathogenic European brown hare syndrome viruses.
