  abstract = {{I}n this study, {HIV} strains circulating among military personnel were characterized, in {M}alabo, the capital city of {E}quatorial {G}uinea. {O}ne sample was found to be {HIV}-2 group {A} while a high degree of genetic diversity was recorded in the pol region of 41 {HIV}-1-positive samples. {CRF}02_{AG} accounted for 53.7% of the strains, and 11 different variants were obtained in the remaining 19 samples: subtype {G} (n=3), {A}3 (n=2), {C} (n=2), {CRF}26_{A}5{U} (n=2), {F}2 (n=1), {CRF}06 (n=1), {CRF}09 (n=1), {CRF}11 (n=1), {CRF}22 (n=1), and divergent subtype {A} (n=1) and {F} (n=1). {O}ne strain could not be classified and three were unique recombinants. {A}nalysis of antiretroviral drug resistance mutations revealed two patients each harboring one major mutation, {M}46{I} in protease and {D}67{N} in reverse transcriptase sequences, respectively. {T}he high genetic diversity and emerging {ARV} resistance mutations call for frequent surveys and appropriate monitoring of {ARV} considering the increasing access to {ARV} in the country.},
