Phylogenetic analysis of SFTSV strains. The ML trees were constructed based on the sequence alignment of L, M, and S segments (A), (B) and (C), respectively. The 11 strains isolated in this study are indicated by bold black dotted lines. Genotypes (C1 to C6 and J1 to J3) are distinguished in branches of different colors. SFTSV strains from China, Japan, and South Korea are labeled in orange, light purple, and cyan, respectively. Strains from the Hubei Province are indicated in red in a different panel.
