West Nile virus belongs to the Flaviviridae family, transmitted by vector mosquitoes. Here, we reported the complete genome sequence of West Nile virus isolated from human samples during an acute encephalitis outbreak in Kerala, India. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the virus genome clusters into genetic lineage 1, clade 1a.
西尼罗河病毒属于黄病毒科,通过媒介蚊子传播。在此,我们报告了从印度喀拉拉邦一次急性脑炎疫情期间的人类样本中分离出的西尼罗河病毒的全基因组序列。系统发育分析表明,该病毒基因组聚类到遗传谱系1的1a分支。
