West Nile virus: A re-emerging pathogen revisited

Figure 5 Representative phylogram showing the relationships between West Nile virus strains. The country of origin and year of isolation is displayed when available. The scale indicates 0.1 substitutions/site. The tree was based on complete NS5 nucleotide sequence (except for HU2925/06), built from a multiple alignment using ClustalW and Phylogeny.fr[231] and visualized with TreeView. Bootstrap values correspond to 500 replications. Squared and circled isolates correspond to lineage 1 and 2 recently circulating in Europe.
