Recombination in Tula Hantavirus Evolution: Analysis of Genetic Lineages from Slovakia
A1 Journal of Virology (ASM) · 1999-01-01 · Czechia · TULV
ABSTRACT To examine the evolution of Tula hantavirus (TUL), carried by the European common vole ( Microtus arvalis and M. rossiaemeridionalis ), we have analyzed genetic variants from Slovakia, the country where the virus is endemic. Phylogenetic analysis (PHYLIP) based on either partial (nucleotides [nt] 441 to 898) or complete N-protein-encoding sequences divided Slovakian TUL variants into two main lineages: (i) strains from eastern Slovakia, which clustered with Russian strains, and (ii) strains from western Slovakia si
