We don’t know whether these represent one key reassortment event and this strain has proliferated, or a few key events, or whether this is happening on a regular basis. Matson: If you step way back from the epidemiology and do a phylogenetic analysis of rotavirus genes 4,you get about 20 clades. But the key fact is that in almost every clade there is a strain that came from an animal and a strain that came from human. I don’t know how this would happen without animal-human transmission. Estes: I agree that the molecular data look compelling, but there is still no direct proof of virus transmission from animals to humans.

Human caliciviruses have been very difficult to adapt to cell culture systems. The lack of a cell culture system or a practical animal model has to some extent limited the progress in understanding the molecular characteristics of the virus and its replication strategies. However, the successful cloning of the Norwalk virus genome and its expression using the baculovirus system has alleviated this problem and begun to provide a better insight into the epidemiological, immunological, biochemical and other functional properties of the virus (Jiang et a1 1990, 1993, Estes & Hardy 1995, Clarke & Lambden 2001 this volume).
