From: Molecular evolution of measles viruses circulated in Taiwan 1992-2008
Phylogenetic analysis of the 456 nts coding for the COOH terminus of the N protein of measles viruses detected in Taiwan, 1992-2008, highlighting the sequences in genotype H1. The dendrogram was created with MEGA 4.1 by the neighbor-joining method with 1000 bootstrap replicates. The asterisks indicate viruses detected from imported cases. Several closely related sequences with the highest nucleotide BLAST scores from GenBank are also included (italic). The reference strains recommended by WHO also included for comparison (bold italic). The tree in figure 3A shows all sequences with the part of the tree showing only genotypes H1 and H2 expanded for easier viewing in figure 3B. The two previously described clusters of genotype H1 [25], are represented by MVi/Shanxi.PRC/13.02/1 (DQ356858) for cluster 1 and MVi/Hunan.PRC/18.95/18 (DQ356791) and MVi/Hunan.PRC/15.95/9 (DQ356792) for cluster 2.
