Genomic analysis of currently known divergent arenaviruses detected in boid snakes. (A) Schematic overview of the genome organization of arenaviruses of boid snakes, including the two gene segments, predicted coding regions, and intergenic hairpins. Not drawn to scale. (B) Phylogenetic trees of the deduced amino acid sequences of the GPC, NP, Z, and RdRp gene products of currently known full-length divergent arenavirus sequences identified from boid snakes with IBD generated with the neighbor-joining method using p distance (the proportion [p] of nucleotide sites at which two sequences being compared are different) and 1,000 bootstrap replicates (B). Bootstrap values are indicated. GenBank accession numbers (one for each viral segment) are as follows: for University of Helsinki virus (UHV-1), KF297880 and KF297881; for Boa Av NL B3, KC508669 and KC508670; for Golden Gate virus (GGV), NC_018483 and NC_018482; and for California Academy of Sciences virus (CASV), NC_018484 and NC_018481.
