title: Genetic characterization of genogroup I norovirus in outbreaks of gastroenteritis.
abstract: In this study, we demonstrate that differences within the P2 domain of norovirus genogroup I (GI) strains can be used to segregate outbreaks which are unrelated, whereas complete conservation within this region allows tracking of strains that are part of a single outbreak and likely to have a common source.
