Abstract
Atypical rotaviruses of two different electropherotypes were identified by PAGE in 16 out of 237 (5.3%) diarrhoeic faecal samples from piglets. A cDNA probe derived from a group B rotavirus hybridized strongly to two samples (of 3 tested) with electropherotypes suggestive of groups B or E, identifying them as group B. The electropherotype(s) of seven samples were typical of group C. By immunofluorescence, antibodies to group B, C, and E rotaviruses have been detected in sera from Australian sows, so it appears that atypical rotaviruses belonging to three different groups occur in pigs in this country.
