Phylogenetic tree of the hemagglutinin (A) and neuraminidase (B) genes of influenza A(H7N9) viruses. Multiple alignments were constructed by using the MUSCLE algorithm of MEGA software version 5.10 (www.megasoftware.net). Phylogenetic trees were constructed by using the neighbor-joining method with bootstrap analyses of 1,000 replications. Bootstrap values >60% are shown in the nodes. Sequences of human influenza A(H7N9) viruses are shown in purple, novel subtype H7N9 viruses from poultry (ch
