During the past decade, Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) GI has been introduced into South Korea, Thailand, and China and has replaced the Genotype III (GIII) strains that had been circulating in Japan and Vietnam during the mid-1990s [5]
The 39 sequences showed 94.2%–100.0% nt identity with each other and with other Indian GIII JEV strains. These findings indicate that both GI and GIII JEV strains circulate in the Gorakhpur region
