Figure

Phylogenetic tree of hepatitis E virus (HEV) reconstructed with avian HEV as an outgroup. Nucleotide sequences of the entire open reading frame 2 were analyzed by the neighbor-joining method. The bootstrap values correspond to 1,000 replications. The 2 nucleotide sequences characterized in this study are shown in bold. The horizontal scale bar at the top left indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
