• Phylogenetic analysis of global hepatitis E virus sequences: genetic diversity, subtypes and zoonosis (2006, background): “For example, based on the complete genomic sequences, a nucleotide difference of 31%–33% was required to divide HCV into genotypes and a difference of 20%–25% to divide subtypes [128,129].”
• The Evolution and Emergence of RNA Viruses (2009, background): “In contrast, the phylogeographic structure of HCV is often characterized by relatively strong spatial subdivision, such that genetic diversity is partitioned into a series of discrete clades, referred to as types and their component subtypes, many of which also have a distinct geographical and risk ”
