Abstract

The neonatal calf diarrhea virus-Cody (NCDV-Cody) strain was found to contain a mixture of rotaviruses with G6 and G8 VP7 genes. Challenge exposure of calves with the mixed virus inoculum indicated that both viruses were maintained by passage in vivo. This is the first P1:G8 rotavirus to be characterized in cattle in the United States.
