a
Taiwanese rotavirus strains are marked in bold. CH31, CH81, and CH107 were recovered from diarrhea-free infections. The rest of the Taiwanese strains were recovered from infections with diarrhea.
b
Values represent percentage identities between nucleotide and amino acid sequences. The nucleotide sequence identities are shown on the lower left portion, the amino acid sequence identities on the upper right portion.
