Nomenclature of human rotaviruses: designation of subgroups and serotypes.

Bulletin of the World Health Organization ·Vol. 62 ·No. 3 ·1984-00-00 ·Pages 501-7

Abstract

Based on the specificity of subgroup antigens and serotype antigens which are situated, respectively, in the major inner and outer capsid polypeptides, a new nomenclature for human rotaviruses is proposed. The subgroups are designated as I and II, and the serotypes as 1, 2, 3, 4.
