Figure 2

Phylogenetic relationship among Hungarian and other G12 rotaviruses. The tree was generated by the neighbor-joining algorithm by using a 501-nt fragment of VP7 (nt 79–579). Scale bar represents the nucleotide distance. Bootstrap values >60% are shown in the branch nodes. The country of origin is shown parallel to the strain names. ARG strain is an unnamed G12 isolate from Argentina.
