Abstract
AbstractMetagenomic next-generation sequencing coupled with capture probe enrichment was used to recover 11 whole and partial Zika virus (ZIKV) genomes from patients in Bahia, Brazil from April 2015 to January 2016, where the majority of suspected Brazilian ZIKV cases have been reported. Phylogenetic reconstructions and molecular clock analyses using the newly generated data uncovered the existence of a Bahia-specific ZIKV lineage sharing a common ancestor in mid-2014, indicating sustained circulation of this strain in Bahia since that date.
