Abstract excerpt
Rotavirus groups A to E are mainly defined by antibody reactivity to the capsid protein VP6. Additionally, two putative rotavirus groups (F and G) have been identified in birds. Here, the first nucleotide sequences of the VP6-encoding genome segment of group F (strain 03V0568) and group G (strain 03V0567) rotaviruses, both derived from chickens, are presented. The group F rotavirus is most closely related to...
