Fig. 4From: Emergence of mosaic recombinant strains potentially associated with vaccine JXA1-R and predominant circulating strains of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in different provinces of ChinaSimPlots for all putative recombinants analyzed in this study. Comparisons of genetic similarity between recombinant and parental strains were made using SimPlot. The results are shown for strains 15GD2*, 15GD3* (a), 15HUN1*, 15HUN2* (b), 10FS1-GD (c), 15JX1* (d), 15HEN1* (e), 15SC3* (f), 15HEB1* (g), and 15LN3* (h). Strains isolated in this study are marked with asterisks (*). The vertical axis represents the nucleotide sequence similarity between the putative recombinant strains, vaccine JXA1-R (sublineage 10.7, red), 2009-2010 HP-PRRSV-like strains (sublineage 10.6, deep sky blue), strain NADC30 (lineage 9, green), and strain VR-2332 (lineage 2, grey). The specific parental 2009-2010 HP-PRRSV strains of the recombinant strains are shown in Table 3. The horizontal axis shows the relative nucleotide position in reference to the full-length genome of VR-2332. Recombination breakpoints are shown as black dotted lines with the location indicated at the bottomBack to article page
