Yellow Fever Virus Exhibits Slower Evolutionary Dynamics than Dengue Virus

Abstract excerpt

Although yellow fever has historically been one of the most important viral infections of humans, relatively little is known about the evolutionary processes that shape its genetic diversity. Similarly, there is limited information on the molecular epidemiology of yellow fever virus (YFV) in Africa even though it most likely first emerged on this continent. Through an analysis of complete E gene sequences,...
