International audience. We report the first complete genome sequence of an enterovirus isolate belonging to the human enterovirus A species of the Pi-cornaviridae family and to type A120 (EV-A120). The EV-A120 isolate MAD-2741-11 was obtained from the stool of a healthy child living on Madagascar Island. The isolate genome was amplified by a reverse transcription-PCR method, and the consensus sequence was determined.
