Comparison of the nucleotide sequence with ch-1a indicated that nsp2 genes of seventeen Ningxia isolates (NX strain) have deletions of 87 nucleotides. The nsp2 genes of the seventeen isolates had 74.9%–100% nucleotide sequence identities with each other. The amplified PCR products were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis and purified using the QIAquick gel extraction kit (Qiagen) per the manufacturer's protocol. All nucleotide sequences were obtained from clinical sample RNA by direct sequencing of PCR products. The nsp2 genes of seventeen isolates had 74.9%-100% nucleotide sequence identity with each other (Fig.3) . ./cache/cord-014946-l3vwb2v7.txt ./txt/cord-014946-l3vwb2v7.txt
