Diversity of Astroviruses Circulating in Humans, Bats, and Wild Birds in Egypt
Astroviruses belong to Astroviridae family which includes two main genera: Mamastroviruses that infect mammals, and Avastroviruses that infect avian hosts. Bats and wild birds are considered among the natural reservoirs for astroviruses.
