This study identifies six novel bat coronaviruses in Spain, three of which are potentially new species, and finds one can use human ACE2 receptor, indicating zoonotic potential.

This study uses experimental evolution to identify mutations in the SADS-CoV spike protein that enhance its ability to infect human cells, potentially increasing its zoonotic potential.

The paper identifies new picornaviruses from Spanish bats, including a potential plant host calhevirus, highlighting their geographic distribution and interspecies transmissibility.
