Evolution of DS-1-like G8P[8] rotavirus A strains from Vietnamese children with acute gastroenteritis (2014–21): Adaptation and loss of animal rotavirus-derived genes during human-to-human spread

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Animal rotaviruses A (RVAs) are considered the source of emerging, novel RVA strains that have the potential to cause global spread in humans. A case in point was the emergence of G8 bovine RVA consisting of the P[8] VP4 gene and the DS-1-like backbone genes that appeared to have jumped into humans recently. However, it was not well documented what evolutionary changes occurred on the animal RVA-derived...
