Phylogenetic tree comparison of CMV genes with mammalian homologues. Trees were prepared comparing CyCMV Mauritius, CyCMV Ottawa, RhCMV 68–1, RhCMV 180.92, CCMV Heberling and HCMV AD169 with mammalian homologue genes using the relevant Homo sapiens homologue as the outgroup. Trees were generated by Mr. Bayes following MAFFT alignment using a model of evolution selected by JModel test comparing a) CyCOX-2/rh10 putative protein product to its mammalian homologue Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2); b) UL146 and UL146-like CMV genes with mammalian homologue CXC chemokine ligand 5 (CXCL5); c) UL144 with mammalian homologue tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily 14 (TNFRSF14). Numbers at loci indicate posterior probability with color scaled according to probability; genetic distances measured in substitutions per site (sps) are given by scale below
