Table 4. Sequence alignment of GII.4 strains and GII.3.

The sequences of GII.4 New Orleans and Sydney strains as well as a GII.3 strain were aligned using the Mega 6 software package. Bolded sequences correspond to the NOF5 and NOR11 target sequence regions, with base mismatches for Sydney and GII.3 colored red. Probe target regions were excluded because there were 0 and 3 mismatches with New Orleans as compared to Sydney and GII.3, respectively.
