N/A represents not applicable; a the complete ORF2 gene sequence of the 213/95 strain isolated from a dog with diarrhea was obtained from GenBank database (AF283778); b the partial ORF2 gene sequence of the 10/Te/07 strain isolated from a dog with gastroenteritis was obtained from GenBank database (EU980610); c the identity of E region of VP1 protein between different strains at the amino acid level; R means respiratory origin; E means enteric origin. The FCV strain 255 is the commercial vaccine widely used in China.
