Figure 1.
Maximum likelihood phylogenetic trees constructed from the nucleotide sequences of the Rwandan G9 strains for the VP7 genome. Using 1000 bootstrap replicates, the branch support was thoroughly evaluated. All G9P[8] study strains clustered into lineage III. The pre-vaccination study strains are indicated by a black circular shape, the post-vaccination study strains are indicated by a triangular shape, and the vaccine strains are indicated by a square shape.
