Abstract
⺠The whole genomes of multiple rotavirus strains were characterized from a single stool sample. ⺠Sequence-independent amplification and 454® pyrosequencing were used. ⺠Four distinct rotavirus strains were identified. ⺠Intergenotype recombination occurred in VP6, NSP2 and NSP4 encoding genome segments. ⺠Some genome segments encoding VP6, VP7 and NSP2 shared ancestry with animal rotaviruses.
