Genetic characterization of a novel hepatitis a virus strain in irrigation water in South Africa.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Apr 2016

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis A virus (HAV) was detected, by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, in irrigation water from a dam on a commercial fresh produce farm in South Africa (SA). The virus was characterized by nucleotide sequence and phylogenetic analysis of a consensus sequence spanning the VP1 and VP1/P2B genomic regions. Amino acid sequence and phylogenetic analysis indicated that the HAV strain was...
