Key result
Metagenomics yields the first full genome of novel sapovirus strain NGY-1 from a gastroenteritis outbreak.
Why the study?
Sapoviruses are genetically highly diverse, and the complete genome sequence of genogroup V genotype 2 sapovirus strains had not been reported.
Population
Fecal samples from a suspected foodborne gastroenteritis outbreak
Design
Metagenomic sequencing approach

May aid sapovirus outbreak surveillance; leaves open pathogenicity and intervention studies.
Reports the first complete genome sequence of a novel GV.2 Sapovirus strain, NGY-1, contributing to the genetic understanding of sapoviruses.
Shibata et al. (2015) studied this question. A novel genogroup V genotype 2 sapovirus strain, NGY-1, was fully sequenced for the first time using metagenomics from fecal samples of a suspected foodborne gastroenteritis outbreak.
