*Dots represent the same amino acids as in A/equine/Kentucky/5/2002 hemagglutinin (HA). Conserved residues in the canine HA that differentiate them from the equine HA are in boldface within blue-shaded boxes. Residues that differentiate the A/canine/Texas/2004 clade from A/canine/Florida/242/2003 and A/canine/Florida/43/2004 are in boldface within gray-shaded boxes.
†Only variable positions are shown; numbering is for mature HAO.
