Abstract

Novel lineages of human astroviruses (HAstV) type-2, -2c and -2d, have been identified. Upon sequencing of the 3' end of the genome, the type-2c and -2d HAstVs were found to be ORF1b/ORF2 recombinant, with the ORF1b being derived from type-3 and type-1 HAstVs, respectively. An ORF2 inter-lineage recombinant strain, 2c/2b, was also identified
