Phylogenetic trees for the indicated genomic regions were generated using the maximum likelihood method and were compared using the incongruence length difference test. For each patient, P values for each comparison are shown; a P value of <0.05 (boldface type) indicates that the phylogenetic trees were not congruent.
The nucleotide sequences used to generate trees were as follows: gag + protease, 1930 to 2549; RT, 2670 to 3308; protease, 2253 to 2549; gag-pol, 1930 to 3308; env C1-V4, 6221 to 7567.
