Distribution of Rotavirus Genotypes from the 2008/2009 to the 2015/2016 Season in Nara Prefecture, Japan.

abstract：:Human parechovirus (HPeV) infections in Yokohama City, Japan, were surveyed from 2000 to 2016. The sequence of the VP1 region of HPeVs was used to construct a phylogenetic tree and to reveal the putative amino acid (aa) sequences. Phylogenetic analysis showed the presence of 3 genotypes in Yokohama City: HPeV1 (25 spe...
