Genomic comparison of 9 porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (PHEV) strains from fairs in Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio, USA, 2015, to 3 non-PHEV coronavirus (CoV) strains from GenBank (bovine CoV Kakegawa, accession no. AB354579; human enteric CoV 4408, accession no. FJ415324;, white-tail deer CoV WD470, accession no. FJ425187) and a reference genome from a PHEV strain from Belgium (VW572, accession no. DQ011855). Analysis was completed by using CGView Comparison Tool software (7). Th

Figure 1. Genomic comparison of 10 porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (PHEV) strains from fairs in Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio, USA, 2015, to 3 non-PHEV coronavirus (CoV) strains from GenBank (bovine CoV Kakegawa, accession no. AB354579; human enteric CoV 4408, accession no. FJ415324;, white-tail deer CoV WD470, accession no. FJ425187) and a reference genome from a PHEV strain from Belgium (VW572, accession no. DQ011855). Analysis was completed by using CGView Comparison Tool software (1). The corresponding strain/sample for rings are detailed on the right. The innermost 2 rings display GC content and GC skew. NS2, nonstructural protein 2; ORF, open reading frame.
