Morphology and volume analysis of new cedratviruses. (A to C) Negative-staining images exhibiting the characteristic ovoid shape and the presence of two corks in the particles of cedratvirus A11, cedratvirus Zaza IHUMI, and Brazilian cedratvirus IHUMI, respectively. Scale bars are indicated on each panel. (D) Length and width of 50 particles of each cedratvirus. Each point represents a single particle analyzed by using ImageJ software. (E) Volumes of different cedratviruses based on the analyses of 50 individual particles, indicating that Brazilian cedratvirus IHUMI has a significantly smaller volume than the other viruses. (F) Relationship between genome length and virion volume for different DNA and RNA viruses. Black circles highlight the pithoviruses and cedratviruses. (G) Relationship between genome length and virion volume for different viruses. The solid black line marks the linear regression between ln-ln-transformed data. The gray area represents the 95% confidence interval for the linear regression line. Black circles highlight the pithoviruses and cedratviruses. The outer gray lines represent the 95% prediction interval, within which we expect 95% of virion volume to lie for a given genome size. ****, P < 0.0001 (ANOVA).
