RESUMO
By co-electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels, the segmented double-standed RNA genome of the simian rotavirus, SA 11, was compared with those of human and bovine rotaviruses. A comparison between SA 11 virus and the Northern Ireland cell culture adapted bovine virus showed that the electrophoretic mobilities of each of the 11 corresponding segments differed. In other comparisons, four to seven segment variations were more common. When the genomes of various bovine rotaviruses were compared, eight different electropherotypes were detected. Four of these electropherotypes were obtained from one property during a single outbreak of disease. In view of such genetic diversity, a scheme for the systematic designation of different rotavirus samples is proposed. The significance of the variations in relation to the molecular epidemiology of bovine rotavirus infections is discussed.
