Alignment and comparison of predicted amino acid sequences for the hypervariable region of the VP2 gene of 17 IBDV isolates. Amino acid sequence of the isolate 52-70 (US) is shown on top. Identities of the subsequently aligned sequences are indicated by dots and differences are represented by single letters. Key amino acids examined in this study are indicated by numbers and arrows. The amino acid sequence (underlined in the top sequence) containing the neutralizing epitopes including major (A and B) and minor (1, 2, and 3) hydrophilic regions in the 17 isolates (boxed regions) is shown. US: USA, DE: Germany, BD: Bangladesh, VN: Vietnam, NP: Nepal, IN: India, HK: Hong Kong, KR: Korea, PK: Pakistan.
