a

Data for segments with low correlation coefficients are underlined and in bold italics.

b

Nucleotide substitutions per site per year. The model used was SRD06 (31). The following segments were excluded: Seg-3 of BTV 15; Seg-7 of BTV 3, -7, -15, and -16; and Seg-8 of BTV 15.

c

HPD, highest probability density.

d

TMRCA, time to the most recent common ancestor before the most recent date of isolation (in years).
