Abstract excerpt
Group C rotaviruses have been identified recently from fecal samples of children with diarrhea in the United States. Using reverse transcriptasepolymerase chain reaction and sequence analysis, we sequenced gene 8s encoding VP7 from two U.S. strains (RI-1 and RI-2), and eight other strains isolate...
