From: Molecular characterization of measles viruses that circulated in Cameroon between 2010 and 2011
Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences of 30 strains of MeV from Cameroon. The trees were constructed based on the 450 nucleotides coding for the nucleoprotein N gene. These trees were prepared using Mega version 5 software and the neighbour-joining method. Bootstrap values are indicated (significant value >80%). The reference viruses are designated by their GenBank accession numbers. The Cameroonian sequences (in bold) are designated by their WHO name (in MeaNS): The comparison of the Cameroonian MeV strains with the WHO reference sequences that are recommended for genotype identification is represented on graph 2a. The comparison of the Cameroonian MeV genotype B3 with the sequences of other genotype B3 viruses available on GenBank is shown on graph 2b.
