Phylogenetic tree inferred with maximum-likelihood analysis, based on complete nonstructural (NS) 3 nt sequences (1,863 bp) of lineage 2 West Nile virus strains. Isolation source is indicated in boldface. The general time reversible model with gamma distributed rates across sites and a fraction of sites assumed to be invariable (GTR + I + Γ) was selected as the best fitting nucleotide substitution model for the sequence dataset. The tree was mid-point rooted, and the numbers indicated on the branches are nonparametric bootstrap probabilities. Strain abbreviations indicate country, year, and GenBank accession number.
