Figure 3

Phylogenetic tree of partial HIV-1 pol sequences (1302 bp) inferred using ML method with HIV-1 reference from HIV sequence compendium 2017 (all A and B subtypes sequences and CRFs with at least one fragment of either A or B variant), supplemented with HIV-1 sequence database-deposited sequences for subtype A and B recombinants with 21 unique recombinant forms found in the studied group. White highlights indicate A/B recombinant sequences. The black triangles mark the URF sequences found in our previous publication (from 2008–2014). Branches containing the same HIV-1 clade have been collapsed. The tree was rooted with group O (accession no KY953205), however, this root was removed from the final figure. The Figure was made using iTol (43).
