Phylogenetic tree constructed using partial VP1 sequences (254 bp) of coxsackievirus A16 strains by neighbor-joining method. The strains analyzed in this study are marked with a filled circle. The number adjacent to the node represents the bootstrap value; values < 70% are not shown. The scale bar at the bottom indicates the genetic distance expressed as nucleotide substitutions per site. The nucleotide sequences of our strains have been submitted to the DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) with accession nos. LC567884–LC567887 and LC567889.
