Phylogenetic analyses of Yezo virus from a tick-bitten person and Ixodes persulcatus ticks, northeastern China (red text), and references viruses. Sequences of representative viral strains were downloaded from National Center for Biotechnology Information public databases (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and aligned together using MEGA version 7.0 (https://www.megasoftware.net). A bootstrapping analysis of 1,000 replicates were conducted, and values >70 were considered significant and are shown. Shading indicates Sulin virus genogroup strains (green) and Tamdy virus strain (blue). Numbers along branches are bootstrap values. Scale bar indicates amino acid substitutions per site.
