The latest research shows that pangolin may be a potential intermediate host for New Coronavirus. The dataset of hCoV-19 potential intermediate host provides effective references for the study and analysis of the evolutionary source and pathological mechanism of the new coronavirus.

The hCoV-19 New Coronavirus Sequence database is built by the China National GeneBank DataBase(CNGBdb) through integrating the released coronavirus sequence data from several open source data platforms. The database contains only virus sequences and does not include the sequence of human. With the data from this database, scientific researchers can further construct a virus phylogenetic tree to reveal the pathogen-related characteristics, and provide effective references for the study and analysis of the evolutionary source and pathological mechanism of the new coronavirus.

Previous research had found the new coronavirus may originate in bats. The dataset of bat genome provides genome data of 41 different types of bats. The dataset will support the prevention and control of the epidemic, as well as offer scientific reference for policies on wild animals.
