Otieno, James R.; Agoti, Charles N.; Cotten, Matthew; Lemey, Philippe; Nokes, D. James, 2018, "Replication Data for: Whole genome analysis of local Kenyan and global sequences unravels the epidemiological and evolutionary dynamics of RSV genotype ON1 strains", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/0CJXMA, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This study is part of ongoing surveillance of respiratory viruses within Kilifi County, coastal Kenya, and across the country that is aimed at understanding the epidemiology and disease burden of respiratory viruses in this region (Nokes et al. 2009). Two sets of samples were used in the current analysis: (1) samples collected from children (under... |

Mohammed, Khadija Said; Githinji, George, 2018, "Replication Data for: Evaluating the Performance of Tools Used to Call Minority Variants from Whole Genome Short-Read Data", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZIO43M, Harvard Dataverse, V5, UNF:6:PJqmV9vNQ9wsd+4PO+h8Jw== [fileUNF]
Several minority variant callers have been developed to describe the minority variants sub-populations from whole genome sequence data. These tools differ based on bioinformatics and statistical approaches used to distinguish between real errors and relevant low-frequency variants. This project evaluated the diagnostic performance of four published... |

Agoti, C.N.; Munywoki, P.K.; Cotten, M.; Nokes, D.J., 2018, "Replication Data for: Transmission patterns and evolution of respiratory syncytial virus in a community outbreak identified by genomic analysis.", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/L9NFPN, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Detailed information on the source, spread and evolution of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) during seasonal community outbreaks remains sparse. Molecular analyses of attachment (G) gene sequences from hospitalized cases suggest that multiple genotypes and variants co-circulate during epidemics and that RSV persistence over successive seasons is c... |
