Phylogenetic relationships of picobirnavirus (PBV) strains detected in this study using RNA-dependent RNA polymerase amino acid sequences. The tree was constructed using the maximum likelihood method. Values for 500 bootstrap replications above 70% are shown, with asterisks for values above 90%. Rat-derived sequences are given in blue, including PBV sequences from Norway rats in Berlin (DEU) in light blue; novel PBV sequences from the airplane rat are given in red. Beihai picobirna-like virus 6 (APG78167) was used as outgroup taxon (not shown). Country codes (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3): ARE, United Arab Emirates; AUS, Australia; BRA, Brazil; CHN, China; CMR, Cameroon; COD, Congo; DEU, Germany; HKG, Hong Kong; HUN, Hungary; IDN, Indonesia; KNA, Saint Kitts and Nevis; PRT, Portugal; SVN, Slovenia; USA, United States of America; ZAF, South Africa; nn, not known.
