## Abstract Over the last decade, rotavirus G1 has represented the most common genotype worldwide. Since 2000, the prevalence of rotavirus G1 has decreased in some countries such as Japan and China. To monitor the trend of the VP7 encoding gene of rotavirus G1, we performed a sequence analysis of 7
## Abstract The gene encoding the protein VP7 that induces the major neutralizing response has been sequenced from 34 human rotaviruses isolated from children with acute diarrhea in Montevideo (Uruguay) over a 4βyear period (1996β1999). These sequences were analyzed and compared to representative c
Rotavirus is the main cause of acute diarrhea in infants and young children worldwide. In Paraguay, acute diarrhea ranks fourth among the causes of mortality in children under 4 years of age. Rotavirus was detected in 93 out of 410 patients admitted to three main hospitals in AsunciΓ³n, Paraguay from
## Abstract Sequence and phylogenetic analyses of the rotavirus VP7 gene were performed on 52 human G2 and G4 strains isolated in Japan, China, Thailand, and Vietnam during 2001β2003. All genotype G2 strains included in the study clustered into lineage II of the phylogenetic tree, together with the
