During 1960-80 dengue disease profile in India was mild despite circulation of all four serotypes of dengue virus (DENV). Increase in disease severity with a concomitant change in the population of DENV-1 and 2 have been reported since then. To determine population dynamics of DENV-3 and 4, the envelope (E) gene sequence was determined for 16 Indian isolates of DENV-3 and 11 of DENV-4 and analyzed together with...
