FIG. 1.

Lyssavirus-rooted phylogenetic tree. The tree was estimated using the neighbor-joining method (39) on the basis of the ECTO nucleotide sequence. Bootstrap values of 1,000 replicates indicate the robustness of the corresponding node. The sequences retrieved from GenBank and those described in the work of Badrane et al. (3) are marked with * and †, respectively. RABV, Rabies virus; EBLV-1, European bat lyssavirus 1; EBLV-2, European bat lyssavirus 2; ABLV, Australian bat lyssavirus; DUVV, Duvenhage virus; LBV, Lagos bat virus; MOKV, Mokola virus.
