Phylogenetic tree of hepatitis E virus (HEV) isolates from 3 HEV-positive blood donors and 3 solid organ transplant recipients (shown in bold), France, compared with reference isolates. The tree was constructed by using partial open reading frame 2 sequences (348 nt). HEV genotypes are indicated at right. A confirmed case of transfusion-transmitted HEV infection requires evidence of infection in the recipient and donor and that the nucleotide sequences of these isolates be identical. The isolates from France were deposited in GenBank under accession nos. KX452928–KX452935; accession numbers, sources, and location of isolation for other isolates are indicated. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
