phylogenetic analyses of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) strains detected in patients with ILI between 2012 and 2016 in Senegal. The phylogenetic tree based on nucleotide sequences of partial Fusion protein gene was generated using the neighbor-joining method, as implemented in MEGA 6 software. 1000 bootstrap replicates were performed to determine the consensus tree presented in this figure, support for nodes present in greater than 70% of the trees are annotated. Reference strains used in the analysis are represented in black color and Senegalese strains are represented in different colors depending on the year of detection
