SimPlot analysis of isolate 3382/06. The 1171/92 strain (pink), the H120 strain (green), and the China strain CK/CH/LDL/97I (deep blue) were used as putative parental strains. The similarity plot displays the consecutive nucleotide identity (%) from the spike glycoprotein (S) gene to the nucleocapsid (N) gene among the queried strain and parental strains. The genomic scale was given at the top of the plot. Isolate 3382/06 was identified as an intertypic recombinant among the 3 putative parental strains. The 2 recombination breakpoints were indicated in red. P-values were calculated by the χ2 test. The 6.8-kb genome of isolate 3382/06 was schematically assembled using Taiwan-like, China-like, and H120-like sequence regions. IG = intergenic region; E = envelope protein gene; M = membrane protein gene. Color version available in the online PDF.
