Phylogenetic analysis of Lithuanian HEV ORF2 sequences. Clustal W algorithm was used for sequence alignment. Numbers adjacent to main branches indicate bootstrap values for different genetic subtypes within HEV genotype3. The reference sequences are marked as follows: GenBank Accession Number, host and name of sequence, country (up to three letter abbreviations), year, subtype. The analysis involved 80-nucleotide partial HEV ORF2 sequences. Only bootstrap values > 70% are indicated. The sequences determined in this study (Accession Numbers MG739304–MG739318) are indicated in bold and with arrows
