Figure 2. A) SimPlot analysis of 7 sapovirus (SaV) complete genome sequences. The Mc10 genome sequence was compared to C12, Bristol, Mc2, SK15, SW278, and Ehime1107 by using a window size of 100 bp with an increment of 20 bp. All gaps were removed. The recombination site is suspected to be located between the polymerase and capsid gene, as shown by the arrows. B) Genomic organization of the SaV SW278 and Ehime1107 strains.
