Figures & data

Figure 1. Phylogenetic tree of the 4 DENV serotypes based on the complete (1479–1485 nt) envelope gene of 289 viral isolates worldwide. The intra-serotype genetic diversity has allowed the designation of genotypes within each DENV serotype.Citation37-40

Figure 2. Global distribution of the different DENV genotypes. Strains of the different DENV genotypes circulating during the period 2001–2014 were included. The DENV strains from imported cases where disease establishment has not been demonstrated were excluded from the analysis.
