Maximum likelihood phylogenies of recombinant GII.4 strains that emerged in Alberta. Three different GII.4 Sydney recombinant strains were identified based on sequences of (a) the 3’end of ORF1 and (b) region C of the capsid gene. The novel GII.P16/GII.4 Sydney strains are shown with solid circles; GII.P4 New Orleans/GII.4 Sydney and GII.Pe/GII.4 Sydney strains are shown with solid squares and solid triangles, respectively. Trees A and B were constructed using the Kimura-2 parameter substitution model assuming gamma-distributed rates of evolution among sites with (tree A) and without (tree B) invariant sites. Branch significance was estimated based on 1000 bootstrap replicates
