Fig 1. Genotyping of the clinical VZV strain 202-14 (in bold). For the phylogenetic analysis, the ORF21-22 gene region (969 nt) of strain 202-14 and 35 VZV reference sequences representing five VZV clades were compiled and used for tree inference utilizing the neighbor-joining method implemented in MEGA X.7,8Genetic distances were computed with the p-distance method; the bar indicates substitutions per site. Grey boxes indicate the five VZV clades.
