Vector Competence of a Coastal Population of Aedes aegypti for Dengue 2 and 3 Virus Serotypes in Kenya

Figure 3

Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree inferred using the T92+G as the best-fit model of evolution for COI barcode region (850 bp) of DENV-2/3 susceptible (SS) and nonsusceptible (NS) Aedes aegypti mosquitoes from Rabai, Kilifi, Kenya. The percentage of replicate tree in which the associated taxa clustered together in the bootstrap test (1000 replicates) is shown next to the branches. Unique haplotypes of the 157 sequences were used during the construction. From these sequences, 139 belonged to cox-I lineage I while 18 belonged to lineage II. Referenced samples of the domestic and sylvatic forms are included. Aedes ochraceus was used as an outgroup.
