![Phylogenetic tree showing the inferred evolutionary relationships among representative rotavirus (RV) strains belonging to species A, B, C, D, F, G, and H, as well as the samples BR59, BR60, and BR63 based on an 1,197-bp fragment of the viral protein 6 (VP6) gene. The tree was constructed by using the neighbor-joining method and the Kimura 2-parameter nucleotide substitution model. Bootstrapping was statistically supported with 1,000 replicates.
