Abstract excerpt
Accurate viral genotyping is important. Here I investigate genotypes in hepatitis E virus (HEV) and find that the open reading frame (ORF) structure (the lengths of three ORFs and the overlapping relationships among the ORFs) can be a good criterion for genotyping HEV. An inter-genotype recombinant (GenBank accession no. DQ450072) was revealed by analysing the ORF structure and confirmed by phylogenetic analyses....
