Phylogenetic analysis of Alkhurma hemorrhagic fever virus isolates and selected tickborne and nonvectored flaviviruses based on a 2097-nucleotide (nt) sequence constituted by the colinearization of E, NS3, and NS5 sequences (699, 713, and 685 nt, respectively). Distances and groupings were determined by the Jukes-Cantor algorithm and neighbor-joining method with the MEGA 2.1 software program (7). Bootstrap values are indicated and correspond to 500 replications.
