ARTIC network has published Bundibugyo (BDBV) sequencing resources as the 2026 outbreak continues in DRC & Uganda. We have compiled guidance for labs wishing to sequence, assemble and analyse BDBV genomes: artic.network/viruses/bdbv/bdbv-sequencing-guide.html

Various sequencing approaches work for BDBV: amplicon panels (BDBV-specific v1.0.0 & pan-Ebola v2.0.0), bait capture (Twist/Illumina), or metagenomics. Primer schemes are available via labs.primalscheme.com and are being synthesised for free distribution on request via the new ARTIC Primer Foundry
