Abstract excerpt
During a survey of human rotaviruses in Okayama Prefecture, Japan in the 2011-2012 rotavirus season (between September 2011 and August 2012), G3P[8] was found to be a predominant genotype overall. However, G1P[8] emerged in the latter half of the season. To clarify the genetic background of the G1P[8] strains, the VP7, VP4, VP6, NSP4, and NSP5/6 genes of the strains were sequenced and genotyped. As a result, it...
