Phylogenic relationships of analyzed viruses. (Left) Phylogenetic tree showing the three herpesviridae sub-families (alpha, beta, and gamma), where the gamma sub-family is further divided into two genera: gamma-1 (Rhadinovirus) and gamma-2 (Lymphocryptovirus). The tree was generated from data in [51]. (Right) Breakdown of the gamma herpesvirus branch shown on the left. The consensus neighbor-joining tree (100 replicates) was based on the conserved herpesvirus DNA polymerase catalytic subunit (DPOL). Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), a gamma-1 herpesvirus, is used as an outgroup to illustrate the phylogenetic relationships between four EBV strains (EBV-1, EBV-2, GD1, and GD2) and two other lymphocryptoviruses used in this study [Macacine herpesvirus 4 (MHV4) and Callitrichine herpesvirus 3 (CaHV3)]. The tree was generated using the Geneious program.
