Phylogenetic analysis of lentivirus pol gene sequences. Lentivirus pol gene sequences were aligned by using a combination of multiple sequence alignment programs. Hand editing was used to remove gaps as well as the dUTPase domain (if present). After such adjustments, 2,769 bases remained in each sequence. Pairwise phylogenetic distances were calculated using the PHYLIP dnadist program (13), with an F84 model of nucleotide substitutions and a transition/transversion ratio of 1.7. The tree was built from the pairwise distances, using a weighted neighbor-joining program. The tree includes a representative sampling of all lentiviruses for which complete pol gene sequences were available in GenBank as of August 1999. The bar represents a divergence of 10% corrected for multiple hits per site.
