Values above spaces are percent identical nucleotides, and those below spaces are percent identical amino acids. All values were calculated by using the GAP program of the Genetics Computer Group software. Abbreviations: SEO, Seoul virus; THAI, Thailand virus, HTN, Hantaan virus; DOB, Dobrava virus; PUU, Puumala virus; TUL, Tula virus, PH, Prospect Hill virus; ELMC, El Moro Canyon virus; BAY, Bayou virus; BCC, Black Creek Canal virus; SN, Sin Nombre virus; NY, New York virus; BR, Blue River virus.
Twenty-eight nucleotides from the 3′ end and 31 nucleotides from the 5′ end of the M segment genome of OK virus were not determined directly and therefore, were not included in comparisons.
