  1. BLAST analyses of sequences amplified in this study and percentage similarity to GenBank reference sequences (Accession number). Sequences with less than 97% similarity are identified in italic bold; sequences that may correspond to more than one viral species are in italic and sequences that may correspond to more than one viral strain are in bold. Sequences with less than 97% similarity to GenBank-deposited sequences and corresponding to more than one virus species are shown with asterisk. Code = name assigned in this study.
