Infectious Bronchitis Virus - Phylogenetic tree

Phylogenetic tree comparing the relatedness of the sequence of the S1 part of the spike glycoprotein of IB variants from USA and other parts of the world.

Key
Conn= Connecticut, Fla=Florida, H120= Holland, Mass= Massachusetts, Beau= Beaudette, Variant 1 and Variant 2 are from Israel, CAV= California variant, Ark= Arkansas, CU-T2= Cornell University, GAV= Georgia variant, D274, D207, and D1466= Dutch isolates, UK/167/84= United Kingdom isolate, DE072= Delaware isolate.

As a general rule, isolates less than 89% similar are different serotypes, with the exception that Conn 46 and Fla 18288 are 96% similar but are different serotypes, indicating that only a few changes in the right place are required to change the serotype.

Numbers denote percent similarity.
