Abstract excerpt
Genotype inclusive grouping of Indian type A isolates as observed in 1D region based phylogeny was distorted at complete L(pro) region, where the VP3(59)-deletion group lineages of genotype VII clustered away from both genotypes VII and VI, confirming its uniqueness and independent evolution of L(pro) and 1D region. Akin to the 1D region, this deletion group is gradually diverging genetically even at L region...
