Phylogenetic analysis of Coxsackievirus A16 in Shenzhen, China, showed endemic cocirculation of B2a and B2b clusters with minimal VP1 region variation over 5 years.
Zong et al. (2011) conducted an observational in Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) (n=69). Coxsackievirus A16 (CA16) strains was evaluated on Phylogenetic classification based on VP1 sequences. Phylogenetic analysis of Coxsackievirus A16 strains from Shenzhen, China, revealed endemic cocirculation of clusters B2a and B2b within subtype B2 viruses from 2005 to 2009.
