title: Complete Genome Sequence of a Low-Virulence Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Strain.
abstract: We report here the complete genome sequence (GenBank accession no. KX268728) of tick-borne encephalitis strain HB171/11, isolated from an Ixodes ricinus tick from a natural focus where human neurological disease is rare. The strain shows unique characteristics in neuroinvasiveness and neurovirulence.
