Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity of the NSP4 gene of rotavirus G1P[8] strains obtained in Sapporo was analyzed, Japan from 1987 to 2000. Sixty-four strains, which were distributed across the whole study period, were included. All G1P[8] NSP4 genes detected in this study belonged to genotype E1, which divided into at least three lineages. The Sapporo rotavirus G1P[8] isolates were found in each lineage. The mean estimated...
