Phylogenetic analysis of sequences from rubella viral strains retrieved in Romania in 2003 and 2011–2012
Romanian sequences from 2003 are highlighted in yellow (1E) and green (1G) while those from 2011–12, are highlighted in blue (2B lineage 1), and red (2B lineage 2). The sequences are according to the World Health Organization recommended standard 739-nt window in the envelope (E)1 coding region of the rubella virus genome, and are compared with WHO reference strains (in bold) and representative sequences from RuV genotypes 1E, 1G, and 2B.
