Additional file 5: ML phylogenies of HMPV subgroup B1 sequences showing within country sequence diversity for Kenya, Gambia, Mali and South Africa sequences. Clustering patterns were determined by within-country sampling location (left panel) and or case/control status (right panel). For Gambia, only case/control clustering patterns were determined.

Additional file 7:ML phylogenies of RSV BA and GA2 sequences showing within country sequence diversity for Mali and South Africa sequences who’s within-country sampling information was available. Clustering patterns were determined by within-country sampling location (left panel) and or case/control status (right panel).

Additional file 4: ML phylogenies of HMPV and RSV G gene sequences collected from Kenya, Mali, Gambia, South Africa and Zambia. Sequences were subtyped based on clustering with with known subgroups or prototype sequences of HMPV and RSV retrieved from GenBank. Panel a: HMPV G gene sequences constructed using 231G gene sequences. Prototype sequences are coloured in red. The numbers next to branches indicate the bootstrap values. Subgroups were confirmed if sequences clustered with known subgroup-specific sequences within a major branch with > 70% bootstrap support. Panel b: RSV G ML phylogeny constructed using 627 unique gene sequences.

Additional file 2: HMPV G and RSV G genes PCR and sequencing primers used to generate the sequence data reported in this study.
