Figure

Dated phylogeny inferred by using 97 enterovirus 71 (EV-A71) 1D gene sequences encoding the VP1 capsid proteins (1DVP1). The dataset included the 4 sequences determined in this study; 37 sequences from EV-A71 C4 strains detected in Austria, China, Korea, France, Germany, Japan, and Taiwan during 1998–2011; and 57 sequences from prototype and clinical strains representative of the genogroups and subgenogroups A, B1–B5, C1–C5. The tree topology shows the relationships between the strains isolated
