Identification of a highly divergent STLV-3 subtype inferred by phylogenetic analyses of concatenated gag-pol-env-tax PTLV sequences (4,126-bp). First and second codon positions were used to generate PTLV phylogenies by sampling 10,000 trees with a Markov Chain Monte Carlo method under a relaxed clock model, and the maximum clade credibility tree, i.e. the tree with the maximum product of the posterior clade probabilities, is shown. Maximum likelihood trees were also inferred using the program PhyML and identical tree topologies were obtained with both methods. Posterior probabilities of inferred Bayesian topologies (numerator) and bootstrap support (1,000 replicates) for PhyML topologies (denominator) are provided at major nodes. The STLV-3d sequence reported here is shown boxed.
