Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Porcine Astroviruses Reveals Novel Genetically Diverse Genotypes Circulating in East African Smallholder Pig Farms
2020-09-24
Abstract excerpt
Astroviruses (AstVs) are occurs globally and are common causes of gastroenteritis in human and animals. The genetic diversity and epidemiology of AstVs in Africa is not well known, hence, we aimed to genetically characterize astroviruses in asymptomatic smallholder piglets in East Africa. Twenty-four samples randomly selected from 446 piglets (<6 months old), initially collected for rotavirus study, was sequenc...
