T1 - Phylogeny of European Bat Lyssavirus 1 in Eptesicus isabellinus Bats, Spain T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2011 VL - 17 IS - 3 SP - 520 SN - 1080-6059 AB - To better understand the epidemiology of European bat lyssavirus 1 (EBLV-1) in Europe, we phylogenetically characterized Lyssavirus from Eptesicus isabellinus bats in Spain. An independent cluster of EBLV-1 possibly resulted from geographic isolation and association with a different reservoir from other European strains. EBLV-1 phylogeny is complex and probably associated with host evolutionary history.
