Phylogenetic analysis of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) isolates from imported cases of chikungunya in Taiwan, 2006–2014. Trees show genetic relationships of the East/Central/South African genotype (A) and Asian genotype (B) of CHIKV isolates; clusters are shown in panel B. Trees were generated by using nucleotide sequences (3,747 bp) of complete structural protein genes C-E3-E2-6K-E1 (capsid–envelope–6K) of CHIKV strains. Sequences obtained in this study are indicated in bold. Viruses are identified by virus/country/strain/year of isolation/GenBank accession no. Strains reported in this study were submitted to GenBank under accession nos. FJ807886–FJ807895, FJ807898, FJ807899, EU192142, EU192143, HM067743, HM067744, and KU561427–KU561466. Analysis was performed by using MEGA version 6 software (http://www.megasoftware.net/) and the maximal-likelihood method (general time-reversible model). Bootstrap support values >75 are shown (1,000 replicates) along branches. Scale bars indicate nucleotide substitutions per site.
