“…This study confirmed a wide heterogeneity of sequenced wild boar HEV strains that belonged to at least two subtypes HEV‐3c and HEV‐3f. The sequence analyses revealed that HEV‐3c is frequent, as observed in other studies conducted in both Italy and Europe (Anheyer‐Behmenburg et al., ; Aprea et al., ; Di Profio et al., ; Dorn‐In et al., ; Rutjes et al., , ; Schielke et al., ; Serracca et al., ; Thiry, Mauroy, et al., ; Vina‐Rodriguez et al., ). In Italy, HEV‐3c is less frequent detected in pigs, where the main subtypes are HEV‐3f and HEV3‐e.…”
