Popis: The results of applying neural replicator analysis (NRA) to the genomes of viruses belonging to the genus Flavivirus are presented. It is shown that the viral genomes considered in this study can be placed in five different cells of the viral genome table. Some of these cells appear for the first time and are characterized by 9-periodicity of WS-encoded genomic sequences. It is noteworthy that Japanese encephalitis viral strains and Zika viral strains occupy not one, but two common cells of this table. We also present the results of the NRA of Zika viral strains and suggest that the earliest strain in Asia is an Indian strain that spread from Africa (Uganda) to the East. The fine structure of the sets of Japanese encephalitis viral strains is presented and it is shown that their generally accepted genotypes 1 and 3 can be clearly divided into two subgenotypes. It is also shown that probably not Indonesian, but Indian strains of this virus can be considered the earliest known strains that further evolved and spread in Asian countries.
