Abstract excerpt
Group A rotavirus (RVA) sequences were detected in 10.8% (23/212) and 20.7% (87/421) of fecal samples collected in 2017-2022 from wild boars and domestic pigs, using next-generation sequencing. Complete genome sequence analysis of one wild boar and 13 domestic pig RVAs revealed that six of them carried the rare H2 NSP5 genotype. Out of the 39 samples for which the NSP5 genotype could be determined, 23 (59.0%)...
