Figure 2

Neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree constructed on the basis of the West Nile virus (WNV) partial envelope gene nucleotide sequences (183 nt) of 38 WNV strains from Turkey and selected global strains. Black dot indicates WNV isolate T2 from Turkey, and black diamond indicates the closely related strain ArB310/67 from the Central African Republic. Bootstrap values of major branches are given for 1,000 replicates. GenBank accession number, name, and country of isolation are given for global strains
