Typing of human rotaviruses: Nucleotide mismatches between the VP7 gene and primer are associated with genotyping failure

Typing of human rotaviruses: Nucleotide mismatches between the VP7 gene and primer are associated with genotyping failure

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Rotavirus genotyping is performed by using reverse transcription PCR with type-specific-primers. Because the high rotavirus mutation rate generates an extensive genomic variation, different G-type-specific primer sets are applied in...
