FIG 1
Unrooted maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree of Rep proteins from CRESS DNA viruses. Closely related sequence groups are collapsed into triangles, the side lengths of which are proportional to the distances between the closest and farthest leaf nodes. The Rep alignment used for the tree reconstruction was taken from the work of Kazlauskas et al. (5, 13) and supplemented with sequences of redondovirids (3). The maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree was constructed using PhyML (24) with automatic selection of the best-fit substitution model for a given alignment. The best model identified by PhyML was RtREV. The branch support was assessed using aBayes implemented in PhyML. The scale bar represents the number of substitutions per site.
