Phylogeny of La Crosse virus (LACV) based on the medium (M) segment of the viral polyprotein gene. State of isolate origin, isolation year, mosquito, or vertebrate isolate source and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) accession numbers are listed for each isolate within the tree. The scale bar represents the number of nucleotide substitutions per site. LACV historical lineages are identified by vertical bars. The 2009 isolates from Virginia (NCBI accession nos. KP226847, KP
