TLDR
These studies provide the basis to define the genetics of HPV pathogenesis and the use of multiple sequence alignments of complete viral genomes and phylogenetic analyses have begun to define variant lineages and sublineages using empirically defined differences.

HPV 16 European variant and HPV 58 linage A2 associated with cancer in Ecuadorian women

TL;DR: This study characterized the HPV types responsible for malignancies associated with the genital tract in Ecuadorian women attending a major hospital in Quito to inform about the potential lower impact on reducing cervical cancer of the bivalent and tetravalent HPV vaccines currently in use in Ecuador.
