From: Association of genotype III of dengue virus serotype 3 with disease outbreak in Eastern Sudan, 2019
Phylogenetic tree based on DENV-3 CprM sequences of the viral polyprotein gene placed the Sudan DENV isolates with genotype 3 of DENV serotype 3. The phylogenetic tree was constructed using the Maximum Likelihood method based on the Tamura-Nei model. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA7 with 1000 bootstrap replicates shown at relevant nodes of the constructed tree. A total of 31sequences of DENV-3 isolates available in NCBI GenBank were used to determine the genotype of the DENV-3 isolates employed in this study. The accession numbers, country of origin and date of isolation were mentioned for each virus isolate when available. The constructed phylogenetic tree placed the viral sequences recovered in this study with genotype III genetic lineage of DENV-3. The Sudan viral sequences are highlighted in red color for clarity. The scale bar expresses the genetic distance
