Complete Genome Sequence of an Enterovirus Type C116 Strain Recovered from Urban Sewage and Determined by Deep Sequencing

Wastewater surveillance allowed the detection of an enterovirus (EV) type rarely reported in clinical settings. We detected an EV-C116 strain in a wastewater sample in France and characterized its complete genome. This virus was genetically closely related to African strains but distantly related to the only complete genome previously described.
