Phylogenetic tree for concatenated <i>env</i> sequences.

<p>Bayesian inference tree for the concatenated <i>env</i> sequences of MbRV and related sequences available on Genbank. Numbers at nodes represent Bayesian posterior probabilities; scale bar represents 0.2 substitutions per site. The tree was midpoint rooted.

Relative positions of MbRV fragments with respect to GALV genome.

<p>Schematic showing the relative positions of the four MbRV fragments (dark bars) and the positions in which they align against the GALV genome. MbRV sequenced fragments are labeled 1–4 starting from the 5′ end the genome.</p
