Phylogenetic tree of dengue type 3 subtype III viruses, based on prM/M and partial E nucleotide sequences (nucleotide numbers 437 to 1144) available in GenBank database. Phylograms were constructed with the MEGA 2 program (15), using the Jukes-Cantor algorithm and the neighbor joining method. The percentage of successful bootstrap replicates (1,000 bootstrap replications, confidence probability >90%) is indicated at nodes. The length of branches is proportional to the number of nucleotide cha

Figure 3. . Phylogenetic tree of dengue type 3 subtype III viruses, based on prM/M and partial E nucleotide sequences (nucleotide numbers 437 to 1144) available in GenBank database. Phylograms were constructed with the MEGA 2 program (15), using the Jukes-Cantor algorithm and the neighbor joining method. The percentage of successful bootstrap replicates (1,000 bootstrap replications, confidence probability >90%) is indicated at nodes. The length of branches is proportional to the number of nucleotide changes (percentage of divergence). The strains sequenced in this work are underlined. Dark triangles correspond to viruses of the same group clustering together; dots indicate a change in scale.
