Phylogenetic analysis of potentially novel bat betaherpesviruses.

<p>Phylogenetic relationships of the novel bat-hosted betaherpesviruses (in bold) with their arrangement in relation to the main groups of betaherpesviruses available from GenBank. The reconstructions were built under the Bayesian criterion allowing specific model rates. The consensus topologies show Bayesian posterior probabilities (BPP) >0.7 after sampling 10⁷ generations. The phylogenetic analysis was based on the alignments of <b>2a)</b> the concatenated terminase (373bp) and polymerase (412 bp) fragments. <b>2b)</b> the fragment of the ATPase subunit of the terminase gene. <b>2c)</b> the fragment of the conserved region of the catalytic subunit of the DNA polymerase gene. Abbreviations of full virus names follow the designation explained in Materials and Methods and presented in the supporting information “<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0169153#pone.0169153.s001" target="_blank">S1 File</a>”.
