Rotavirus A (RVA) is a major cause of acute gastroenteritis in young children, yet genomic data from Malaysia, particularly Sabah, are limited. This study reports the first whole-genome sequence analysis of two G8P[8] RVA strains (L3 and L14) detected in Sabah. Both strains displayed a DS-1-like genotype constellation and clustered closely with East Asian strains. However, VP6 and VP3 gene segments showed...
