Figure 2. . . Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree of dengue virus serotype 3 (D3) sequences from Senegal compared with other sequences. The tree was constructed on the basis of an 885-bp segment of the envelope protein gene. Bootstrap values >70 are labeled next to the node. Sequences from different geographic areas are shown by different colors. Gray shading indicates sequences from Senegal and closely related strains. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
