Complete Genome Sequences of Zika Virus Strains Isolated from the Blood of Patients in Thailand in 2014 and the Philippines in 2012

Abstract

Here, we present the complete genome sequences of two Zika virus (ZIKV) strains, Zika virus/ Homo sapiens -tc/THA/2014/SV0127-14 and Zika virus/ H. sapiens -tc/PHL/2012/CPC-0740, isolated from the blood of patients collected in Thailand, 2014, and the Philippines, 2012, respectively. Sequencing and phylogenetic analysis showed that both strains belong to the Asian lineage.
