Figure. Phylogenic tree of Sapovirus (SaV) sequences isolated in this study (represented in boldface). SaV nucleotide sequences were constructed with the partial N-terminal capsid region, using SaV PEC strain (a porcine SaV) as an outgroup. The numbers on the branches indicate the bootstrap values for the clusters. Bootstrap values >950 were considered statistically significant for the grouping (8). Asterisks indicate specimens collected from outpatients. The distance scale in nucleotide substitutions per position is shown. Sydney isolates have been deposited in GenBank (accession nos. DQ104357–DQ104363). GenBank accession numbers for the reference strains are as follows: Arg39, AY289803; Bristol/98, AJ249939; C12, AY603425; cruise ship/2000, AY289804; Ehime1107, DQ058829; Houston/27/90, U95644; London/29845/90, U95645; Manchester, X86560; Mc2, AY237419; Mc10, AY237420; Mex340/1990, AF435812; NK24, AY646856; Parkville, U73124; PEC, AF182760; Sapporo/82, U65427; Stockholm/318/97, AF194182; Sakaeo15, AY646855; and SW278, DQ125333.
