Research Abstract |
To elucidate genetic characteristics of new variants and emerging types of rotavirus that spread to mainly in Asian countries, whole genomic sequence analysis and phylogenetic analysis were conducted. In China and Bangladesh, the predominant genotypes were G1P[8]/G3P[8], G2P[4], respectively, among which reassortant viruses containing gene segments derived from animal rotavirus were detected. Rotaviruses with P[8]b, a new variant of P[8]-VP4 genotype, were detected in China, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, and mostly associated with globally emerging type G9. Whole genomic analysis of various rotaviruses strains with emerging genotypes from Asia and other regions (genotypes G1P[6], G2P[6], G3P[2]、G3P[6], G3P[9], G4P[10], G6P[9], G8P[1], G9P[19]) revealed that these strains could be classified into 1)reassortant between different human rotavirus genogroups, 2)reassortant between human and animal rotaviruses, and 3) animal rotaviruses that directly transmitted to humans. These findings indicated that reassortment and interspecies transmission may be the main causing mechanisms of new variants and emergingtypes of human rotaviruses.
