Datasets underlying the publication "A new lineage nomenclature to aid genomic surveillance of dengue virus"

These datasets are underlying the scientific publication titled "A new lineage nomenclature to aid genomic surveillance of dengue virus", published in the PLOS Biology journal. 

All sequences used to design the lineage system are from Genbank and GISAID, with accession numbers listed in the tables. Custom scripts and alignments of representative sequences from Genbank can be found on the github of the publication authors (https://github.com/DENV-lineages/lineages-paper).

Sequences for the Vietnam case study can be found on Genbank under accession numbers PP269455-PP270050, in bioproject PRJNA1072696. For the case study from Tanzania, sequences can be found on Genbank under accession numbers OM920035-OM920066 for DENV-3 and OM920075-OM920415 for DENV-1. Sequences for the Brazil case study can be found on GISAID under accession numbers EPI_ISL_17733558 ‐ EPI_ISL_191469691.

The provided information in the datasets are further discussed and interpreted in detail, as well as their subsequent results, in the scientific publication.
