Figure 1

Phylogenetic analysis of 10 nearly full-length sequences from acutely infected (seroincident) MSM participants in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A) A neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree analysis was performed with the Kimura two-parameter method of distance estimation using reference sequences. The genetic distance corresponding to the lengths of the branches is shown by the bottom line. Studied samples are in bold. Underlined samples are inter-subtype recombinants. B) The bootscan analysis of nearly full length sequences of tree recombinant BF virus and CRF_12. This analysis was performed comparing the sample with subtype C (consensus of ETH2220, 92BR025 and IN21068), subtype B (consensus of WR27, MN and RL42) and subtype F (consensus of VI850, FIN9363 and BR020). A 300 nt window advanced in 20 nt increments was used.
