Genbank accession numbers indicate genomic scaffolds.
We applied a systematic approach to naming EPVs. Each element was assigned a unique identifier (ID) constructed the following components: (1) the classifier ‘EPV’; (2) the taxonomic group into which the element is placed; (3) a numeric ID that uniquely identifies the insertion and its orthologous copies within its respective taxonomic group.
Amdo, genus Amdoparvovirus; AP, amdo-proto lineage; NS, replicase; VP, capsid; M, middle ORF.
