Figure 2. Phylogenetic tree depicting relationships between known and novel HRVs based on 5’UTR analysis.
Grouping of HRV reference serotypes (designated R#), previously published novel HRV strains (designated by pink triangles), novel strains from Wisconsin [15] (designated W#), and novel viral strains detected in our clinical samples (designated by N# and circles) was based on 285 nt in the 5’UTR. Strains fully sequenced in this study are designated by a pink star. See additional legend in Figure 1.
