Abstract
The pathogenicity of rotaviruses depends on multiple viral and host factors. In this review the evidence for the involvement of a number of viral genes in the ability to cause disease is presented. Different genes are of importance in different rotavirus-host systems: there is no single pathogenicity factor.
