Research Abstract |
There are many genotypes in norovirus (NoV), and NoV causes outbreak repeatedly with high frequency of mutation. In this research, NoV genes detected from patients and sewer influents were compared to understand the molecular basis of the outbreak in an area. While genotype GI.4 was mainly detected from sewer influents for long period with less frequency of mutation, different recombinant variants or subtypes of GII.2, 3, or 4, respectively appeared rise and fall in outbreaks for every season. It was suggested that the genotypes causing an apparent interaction with a host show higher genetic variations.
