FastANI-based network analysis of 685 poxvirus genomes. Each dot and colour represent one poxvirus genome and one species, respectively. Dots connected by lines indicate a cluster where the calculated ANI values were over 98 per cent. In the present study, the clusters are defined at ANI species rank and within clusters, each poxvirus has a corresponding member (ANI value ≥ 98 per cent). In the Type I group, the resulting demarcation at ANI species rank is consistent with the ICTV Master Species List. In the Type II group, one ICTV species has been split into multiple species at the ANI species rank. In the Type III group, multiple ICTV species have merged into one species at the ANI species rank (cluster #58).
