a

Virus stocks were originally obtained as freeze dried rabbit tissue from Prof. Frank Fenner, John Curtin School of Medical Research, Australian National University, Canberra, Australia.

b

Virus stocks were from viruses plaque purified as described previously [49].

c

Virus was from an ampoule of freeze dried rabbit tissue powder prepared by the Commonwealth Serum Laboratories for rabbit control.

d

Based on the Lu sequence from Cameron et al. [16] 1-161777 as corrected by Morales et al. [18]; the actual sequence length is shown in parenthesis.
