Figure 2. Evolution of nucleotide sequences of the large and medium gene segments of WUXV, a new phlebovirus isolated in China. A) Phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide sequences and molecular genetic evolution analysis of the large gene of WUXV isolate SXWX1813-2 (black dot), and reference isolates. B) Phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide sequences and molecular evolution analyses of the medium genes of 17 WUXV isolates, and reference isolates. MEGA 6.0 (https://www.megasoftware.net) and the neighbor-joining method were used for genetic evolution analysis with 1,000 bootstrap replicates. SFTSV, severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus; WUXV, Wuxiang virus.
