Abstract
⺠We evaluate the positive selection pressure on E2 partial gene of CSF fever viruses. ⺠We asses a representative CSF virus for their clinical virulence. ⺠The analysis estimated six new sites under positive selection. ⺠Experimental evidence of a milder presentation of the disease is provided. ⺠Escape viral variants with alterations in viral pathogenicity are suggested to occur.
