Abstract excerpt
Group C rotavirus (RV-C) has been found in Brazilian pig herds; however, wild-type strains have not yet been characterized. We made a molecular analysis of a region of gene 5 in Brazilian RV-C strains. Stool samples from 11 piglets (diarrheic and with normal consistency) positive for the RV-C VP6 gene in an RT-PCR assay were sequenced. A 270-bp amplicon of nine sequences was analyzed. All sequences showed high...
