^aStrains with a name beginning with CH were collected from the CCH. The rest of the strains were collected from NTUH. 

^bD, days; M, months; Y, years. 

^cG and P types have been determined by RT-PCR. 

^dNSP4 genotypes determined in this study; the types were designated as described by Kirkwood and Palombo (18).
