Differences in Genetic Diversity of Tick-Borne Flaviviruses

ABSTRACT: There are very few studies exploring the genetic diversity of tick-borne encephalitis complex viruses. Most of the viruses have been sequenced using capillary electrophoresis, however, very few viruses have been analyzed using deep sequencing to look at the genotypes in each virus population. In this study, different viruses and strains belonging to the tick-borne encephalitis complex were sequenced and genetic diversity was analyzed. Shannon entropy and single nucleotide variants were used to compare the viruses. Then genetic diversity was compared to the phylogenetic relationship of the viruses.
