## Abstract A total of 162 rotavirus strains detected between 1996 and 2006 among individuals with diarrhea in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, were analyzed by multiple‐gene genotyping. Characterization of strains was done by RT‐PCR assay for amplification and typing of the VP7‐, VP4‐, VP6‐, and NSP4‐encod

## Abstract In a survey on the etiology of acute gastroenteritis in infants and young children in Nigeria, group C human rotaviruses were detected in two of 112 rotavirus positive stool specimens collected between 1999 and 2000. The VP7, VP6, and VP4 genes of the two Nigerian human group C rotaviru
A modified (aFT9m) and a degenerate (aFT9d) version of the rotavirus G9-specific primer (aFT9) allowed strains that were previously untypable, because of point mutations accumulating at the primer binding site, to be G typed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The strains were collec
