Hantavirus, a family of bunyaviridae, is a single‐stranded, negative sense RNA virus containing<br />
tripartite genomes. Hantavirus infection causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and<br />
hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) with the mortality rate of 1‐36%. The outbreak or endemic<br />
infection of hantavirus are a critical threat for world public health because of the lack of effective<br />
prophylactic and therapeutic strategies. In addition, according to the Center for Disease Control and<br />
Prevention (CDC), hantavirus belongs to Category C of the bioterrorism agent categories, suggesting<br />
it is a possible biological agent to threat the national security because of easy production, rapid<br />
transmission and less understandable pathogenesis. Recently, the usage of NGS provides a potential<br />
tool to acquire whole viral genome sequence for the advance of diagnostics and vaccines. Here, based<br />
of Sequence Independent Single Primer Amplification Next Generation <strong>Sequencing</strong> (SISPA NGS), we<br />
have attempted whole genome sequencing of Hantaan virus (HTNV), the prototype of hantavirus and<br />
a etiology of HFRS, from endemic areas in the Republic of Korea (ROK). In this study, SISPA NGS<br />
applied to the whole genome sequencing and the detection of HTNV tripartite genomes from the<br />
isolates. The results showed that whole genome sequences of seven HTNV strains was recovered by<br />
the NGS and validated by phylogenetic analysis with hantavirus. Thus, SISPA NGS will be a robust tool<br />
for the accurate genomic‐based diagnosis and whole genome sequencing of hantaviruses in natural<br />
reservoirs as well as HFRS and HPS patients.<br />
