Here we report the complete genome sequence of a dengue virus serotype 2 (DENV-2) strain, GZ40, isolated in Guangdong, China, in 2010. A phylogenetic analysis classified GZ40 into the Cosmopolitan genotype, while previous Chinese DENV-2 isolates belong to the Asian I genotype. The reemergence of the Cosmopolitan genotype of DENV-2 in China deserves further investigation.

Arboviruses are transmitted to humans and animals by arthropods and can be fatal. Dengue fever remains a major mosquito-borne disease in tropical regions, primarily spread by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Despite vector control and vaccine efforts, dengue virus (DENV) continues to pose serious public health challenges in Malaysia.

The house fly, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae), is a cosmopolitan pest that poses health risks to humans and domesticated animals. Pyrethroid insecticides target the insect voltage-sensitive sodium channel (VSSC) and have been widely used to control house flies in poultry farms in Argentina for more than 3 decades.

Dengue virus (DENV) remains a significant public health concern in Pakistan, with recurrent outbreaks necessitating continuous genomic surveillance. The 2024 dengue outbreak prompted an investigation into circulating serotypes and genomic diversity. The National Institute of Health (NIH), Pakistan, received 524 NS-1 confirmed dengue samples across multiple districts in 2024.

Background: Dengue fever has become a significant epidemic in South and Southeast Asia. Recently, Yunnan Province in southwestern China, which borders these regions, has also experienced a significant outbreak. This study aims to investigate the genetic diversity of the dengue virus (DENV) and identify potential sources of transmission in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province in 2024.
