1. Characterization of chuvirus-like viruses.
Characterization of chuvirus-like viruses. Panel A shows the genome schematic diagrams of the three novel chuviruses identified in our study. Panel B shows the phylogenetic relationship of these viruses (indicated by stars) to other chuviruses based on a conserved 331-aa fragment of the RdRp. Only nodes with bootstrap values greater than 90 are shown. Clade I represents viruses with circular single-segment genomes, and clade II represents viruses with linear or circular multisegmented genomes. Rabies virus was used as an outgroup.
