Rotaviruses (RVs) are a major cause of acute viral gastroenteritis in young animals and
children worldwide. Immunocompetent adults of different species become resistant to …

Numerous rotavirus group A (RVA) strains with distinct G-genotype and P-genotype
combinations have been described infecting humans worldwide. However, the increasing …

In April 2008, a nucleotide-sequence-based, complete genome classification system was
developed for group A rotaviruses (RVs). This system assigns a specific genotype to each of …

Since its discovery 40 years ago, rotavirus (RV) is considered to be a major cause of infant
and childhood morbidity and mortality particularly in developing countries. Nearly every …

Rotaviruses (RVs) are responsible for more than 600,000 child deaths each year. The
worldwide introduction of two life oral vaccines RotaTeq and Rotarix is believed to reduce …

Rotarix™ was introduced into the Belgian market in 2006 and RotaTeq™ in 2007, quickly
reaching more than 85% vaccine coverage of all newborns in Belgium. The incidence of …

Abstract Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory
syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The SARS-CoV-2 virus strains has geographical …

young animals. The infection produces acute diarrhea in its hosts and, in intensively reared …

Studies on genetic diversity of rotaviruses have been primarily based on the genes
encoding the antigenically significant VP7 and VP4 proteins. Since the rotavirus genome …

RNA–RNA hybridization assays and complete genome sequence analyses have shown that
feline rotavirus (FRV) and canine rotavirus (CRV) strains display at least two distinct …
