a

Δnt, number of polymorphic nucleotide sites; %nt, percent nucleotide sites polymorphic; Δrep, number of polymorphic sites resulting in an amino acid replacement; %rep, percent sites with replacement; pars, parsimony informative sites; π, πs, and πa, average p-distances at all sites, synonymous sites, and nonsynonymous sites, respectively.

b

Analyses based on published nucleotide sequence data (15, 48); these sequences represent the same serovars as used in this study, but some sequences come from different strains.

c

This includes one substitution resulting in a premature stop codon.
