Abstract excerpt
Rotaviruses are dynamic pathogens that have been shown to infect multiple species. In 2006, two G4P[6] rotavirus strains with porcine characteristics were detected in Santa Fe, Argentina. To further characterize and determine the origin of these strains, nearly the full length of their genome was sequenced. While most of the genome segments were from porcine origin, the two strains grouped in different...
