From: The genome and occlusion bodies of marine Penaeus monodon nudivirus (PmNV, also known as MBV and PemoNPV) suggest that it should be assigned to a new nudivirus genus that is distinct from the terrestrial nudiviruses

Figure 8

Phylogenetic analysis of the concatenated protein sequences of LEF-4, LEF-5, DNA polymerase and Ac81 from PmNV, the nudiviruses, and four baculoviruses. This analysis follows Jehle et al.[5]. The tree was inferred using MEGA 5.2 and the neighbor-joining method. Robustness was tested using bootstrap (1000) analysis. Percent values are indicated at the nodes. Jehle et al. [5] proposed that the nudiviruses should be assigned to one of two new genera. Alphanudivirus and Betanudivirus. We propose here that PmNV should be assigned to a third new genus, Gammanudivirus.
