Figure 1

Phylogenetic analysis of PAK5045 virus (arrows) and parechovirus strains based on A) the complete amino acid sequence of P1 region and B) the complete amino acid sequence of viral protein 1 (VP1). All parechovirus sequences were obtained from GenBank, including 13 completely sequenced parechoviruses, human parechoviruses (HPeV) 1 Harris (Q66578), HPeV1 BNI-788St (ABK54353), HPeV2 Williamson(CAA06679), HPeV3 A308/99(BAC23086), HPeV3 Can82853-01(CAI64373),HPeV4 K251176-02 (ABC41566), HPeV4 T75-407

Both trees were constructed by the neighbor-joining method with 1,000 bootstrap replicates using MEGA4.
