Supports enhanced rotavirus surveillance in livestock; leaves open the frequency and directionality of zoonotic transmission.
Observational
The study characterizes the genetic diversity of porcine rotavirus in the UK, identifying a human P[8] genotype in a pig, highlighting the potential for cross-species transmission.
Chandler-Bostock et al. (2014) conducted an observational in Porcine rotavirus enteritis. Group A rotavirus (GARV) strains was evaluated on Diversity of group A rotavirus (GARV) genotypes. Genotyping of porcine group A rotavirus in the UK identified a wide diversity of strains, including a human P[8] genotype, highlighting the potential for cross-species infection.
