    Document: The recent severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic, the discovery of SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and identification of SARS-CoV-like viruses from Himalayan palm civets and a raccoon dog from wild live markets in China have led to a boost in interest on discovery of novel coronaviruses in both humans and animals (5-9) ( Figure 1 ). For human coronaviruses, a novel group 1 human coronavirus, human coronavirus NL63 (HCoV-NL63) was reported in 2004 (10, 11) , while we described the discovery, complete genome sequence and genetic diversity of a novel group 2 human coronavirus, coronavirus HKU1 (CoV-HKU1) in 2005 (4, (12) (13) (14) . As for animal coronaviruses, six group 1 (15) (16) (17) , four group 2, including bat SARS-CoV and two new subgroups of group 2 coronaviruses (6, 8, 18, 19) , and 11 group 3 (20-23) coronaviruses have recently been described.
