Characterization of virus sequences identified in this study. (A to E) Phylogenetic analyses of the genus Hepatovirus of the family Picornaviridae (A), the family Hepeviridae (B), the genus Mamastrovirus of the family Astroviridae (C), the genus Parechovirus of the family Picornaviridae (D), and the genus Pegivirus of the family Flaviviridae (E). These phylogenetic trees were constructed based on the maximum likelihood method (see Materials and Methods). Orange labels indicate viruses identified in this study, and colored animal silhouettes indicate the viral host species. Black labels and animal silhouettes indicate known viruses and their representative hosts, respectively. Scale bars indicate the genetic distance (substitutions per site). Blue numbers on branches indicate the bootstrap supporting values (%) with 1,000 replicates. Yellow boxes highlight viruses genetically similar to the novel virus identified in this study.
