Figure. Phylogenetic analysis of dengue virus 2 cosmopolitan genotype, Colombia. A) Geographic location of the neighborhoods where the patients’ residences are situated. B) Maximum-likelihood tree rooted at the midpoint depicts the evolutionary relationships of the complete genome sequence of the dengue virus 2 cosmopolitan genotype identified in 2 patients from the city of Villavicencio in Meta department, Colombia (red circles), along with 1,001 publicly available sequences from GenBank. The highlighted blue area is shown in a time-resolved maximum-likelihood tree in expanded panel; colors represent different sampling locations. Scale bar indicates number of substitutions per site.
