Figure 2. Phylogenetic analysis of the partial sequences of nonstructural protein–encoding gene in the small segment of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus identified in Thailand, 2015–2021 and other countries. Black circles indicate nucleotide sequences identified in this study; black triangle indicates nucleotide sequence of the positive control originated from SFTSV patients in South Korea. The sequences are described by GenBank accession numbers/strain names/hosts/3-letter country code. Bootstrap values of nodes, based on 1,000 bootstrapping replicates, associated with the definition of genotypes are indicated in the principal nodes. Scale bar indicates phylogenetic distance of 0.05 nucleotide substitutions per site.
