Figure 2

Phylogenetic analysis of Kenya-2 clade Rift Valley fever virus small segment from an outbreak in Uganda, 2021, compared with available full-length segments from GenBank (accession numbers shown). Green shading indicates sequence from Uganda outbreak; blue shading indicates historic RVFV sequences from Uganda. Red numbers indicate nodes with bootstrap support >70%. Complete phylogenies of small and large segments are shown in the Appendix.
