Neighbor-joining phylogenetic trees of the amino acid sequences of the partial polyprotein sequence (A), viral protein (VP) 1 (B), and VP2 (C) capsid proteins of selected representative caliciviruses and the newly identified Recovirus Bangladesh/289/2007 (indicated in boldface). Phylograms were generated by using MEGA5 (www.megasoftware.net) with p-distance and 1,000 bootstrap replicates. Significant bootstrap values and GenBank accession numbers are shown.
