Additional information

The nucleotide sequence reported in this paper has been submitted to the GenBank database and has been assigned the accession number U31971. The name B * 3702 was officially assigned by the WHO Nomenclature Committee in September 1995. This follows the agreed policy that, subject to the conditions stated in the most recent Nomenclature Report, names will be assigned to new sequences as they are identified. A list of such new names will be published in the following WHO Nomenclature Report
