Group A rotavirus is a leading cause of severe acute gastroenteritis worldwide. In this study, the first complete coding sequences of 11 RNA segments of human group A rotavirus G12P[8] in Japan were determined by an unbiased viral metagenomics. Its genomic constellation (VP7-VP4-VP6-VP1-VP2-VP3-NSP1-NSP2-NSP3-NSP4-NSP5 genes) was identified as G12-P[8]-I1-R1-C1-M1-A1-N1-T1-E1-H1. When performing the genetic analysis, we discovered an intergenotypic recombination event in the pig group A rotavirus G12P[8] strain BUW-14-A008. The novel recombination was found between two different genotypes G12 and G3 in the VP7 gene, and P[8] and P[13] in the VP4 gene.
