Phylogenetic analyses based on complete and partial genomic sequences (921\u2005nt of the C\u2013prM\u2013E region) revealed that WNV could be classified into five distinct groups that differed from each other by 20\u201325\u200a% at the complete genome level and by 20\u201326\u200a% using partial sequences. Of the Indian isolates, 13 formed a distinct genetic lineage, lineage 5, whereas two isolates, one from a human patient (1967) and another from a bat (1968), were related closely to lineage 1 strains. The complete genomic sequence of the Indian isolate, 804994, showed 20\u201322\u200a% genetic divergence from the previously proposed lineage 1 and 2 strains and 24\u201325\u200a% divergence from isolates of the newly proposed lineages 3 (Rabensburg isolate 97-103 of 1997) and 4 (Russian isolate LEIV-Krnd88-190 of 1998). Similarly, the partial genomic sequences of the Indian isolates showed 21\u201326\u200a% divergence from lineage 1 and 2 strains and from the Rabensburg (97-103) and Russian (LEIV-Krnd88-190) isolates. Cross-neutralization using strain-specific polyclonal antibodies against lineage 1 strain Eg-101 and representative Indian strains suggests substantial antigenic variation. This study documents circulation of WNV strains typical to India for 27\u2005years and the introduction of lineage 1 strains during 1967\u20131968. These results indicate strongly that WNV should be classified into five genetic lineages, with Indian viruses constituting the distinct genetic lineage 5.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1099\/vir.0.82403-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,2,26]],"date-time":"2007-02-26T23:48:23Z","timestamp":1172533703000},"page":"875-884","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":159,"title":["West Nile virus isolates from India: evidence for a distinct genetic lineage"],"prefix":"10.1099","volume":"88","author":[{"given":"Vijay P.","family":"Bondre","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Microbial Containment Complex Unit, National Institute of Virology (ICMR), Sus Road, Pashan, Pune 411 021, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.
