Preface The first coronavirus, avian infectious bronchitis virus, was isolated from chicken eggs in 1937. Porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus and mouse hepatitis virus were subsequently identified from pigs and mice, respectively, in the 1940s. In the following decades, while the human coronaviruses were identified in the 1960s, other animal coronaviruses including porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (1962), feline coronavirus (1970), canine coronavirus (1971), bovine coronavirus (1973), turkey coronavirus (1973), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (1978), and porcine respiratory coronavirus (1984) were also discovered. In order to study coronaviruses, various systems of reverse genetics have been established since 1992 for understanding viral replication, elucidating virus-host interaction and pathogenesis, and developing novel coronavirus vaccines. Because a high-throughput next-generation sequencing technology was unveiled in 2005, its application in virology has advanced a new era of coronavirus discovery. Several emerging animal coronaviruses, such as porcine deltacoronaviruses, therefore, have
