Prevalence and Genomic Characterization of Rotavirus A from Domestic Pigs in Zambia: Evidence for Porcine-Human Interspecies Transmission

2023-08-16

Abstract excerpt

Rotavirus is a major cause of diarrhea globally in animals and young children under 5 years. Here, molecular detection and genetic characterization of porcine rotavirus in smallholder and commercial pig farms in the Lusaka Province of Zambia were con-ducted. Screening of 148 stool samples by RT-PCR targeting the VP6 gene revealed a prevalence of 22.9 % (34/148). Further testing of VP6-positive samples with VP7-spe...
