Unrooted neighbor-joining tree depicting phylogenetic relatedness of reference enterovirus D68 isolates (black circles) used in microneutralization assays in study of enterovirus D68 seroprevalence among children and adults in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, 2012–2013. We constructed tree using complete virus protein 1 gene sequences and MEGA6.0 (8). Branching within major clades (bolded) is collapsed for clarity.
