Evolutionary analysis for dengue virus serotype 3 (DENV-3) genotype III, Brazil. A) Rooted tree shows the evolutionary relationships of the complete genome sequences from the DENV-3 genotype III identified in Roraima state, Brazil (arrow), and 979 publicly available sequences from GenBank. Colors represent different sampling locations. Red highlighting shows the 2 DENV-3 GIII American lineages. The dashed blue rectangle indicates the area enlarged in panel B. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. B) Time-resolved maximum clade credibility tree showing the enlarged area from panel A. Colors indicate geographic sampling location. To improve visualization, the monophyletic clade for Bhutan has been collapsed. Posterior probability/posterior state probability values at key nodes show support for branching structure. Inset shows the plot of the root-to-tip genetic distance against sampling time.
