Genotype G(9) Strain Brazil: Characterization of an Atypical Rotaviruses from the Southern Region of Molecular Characterization of Porcine

The G (VP7) and P (VP4) serotype distribution of Brazilian porcine rotaviruses was determined usingreverse transcription-PCR genotyping methods. Common porcine G types G3, G4, and G5 were detected incombination with P types [6] and [7]. The detection of nonporcine G types and unusual G-P combinations andthe characterization of an atypical virus indicated that interspecies transmission may contribute to the geneticdiversity of porcine rotaviruses.
