Abstract excerpt
We report the first description of rotavirus A strains in African buffalo (Syncerus caffer). Following RNA extraction from stool samples, cDNA was prepared, followed either by sequence-independent amplification and 454 pyrosequencing or direct sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq platform. RVA/Buffalo-wt/ZAF/4426/2002/G29P[14] exhibited a novel G29P[14] combination and an artiodactyl backbone:...
