Figure 2. Phylogenetic analysis based on 21 full-length porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) genomes. The new strains from Germany (PEDV/GER/L00719/2014 and PEDV/GER/L00721/2014, in boldface and italics) and the new 2014 PEDV variant from the United States (OH851, in boldface) were included and compared with current circulating strains from the United States and China. The tree was constructed by using PhyML (11). Numbers above branches indicate proportions calculated from 1,000 bootstrap replicates: The scale bar represents nucleotide substitutions per site.
