Figure
Figure. Maximum-likelihood tree for the rotavirus (RVA) nonstructural protein 2 (NSP2) gene showing phylogenetic clustering with wild-type G2P[4] strains identified during the 2010–11 season, United States, and RotaTeq (Merck, Whitehouse Station, NJ, USA) vaccine strains. The tree was created by using MEGA 5.1 (8). Approximate-likelihood ratio test values >70% are shown next to supported nodes. Boldface indicates strain 2011729115. Scale bar indicates number of nucleotide substitutions per site.
