Neighbor-joining tree based on partial sequences of open reading frame 1a protein of human and animal astroviruses. Amino acid sequences of the Mexican M3363 strain (arrow) were obtained from Walter (4); other sequences were obtained from GenBank. Bootstrap values >90 are indicated. Scale bar is proportional to genetic distance and indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
