Sequences found across all soil sites from this study (inner ring, white) were aligned with those used to construct the RNA global taxonomy (Wolf et al. inner ring, black) and another soil study (Starr et al. inner ring, grey). Global RNA phylogeny is divided into the five proposed RNA viral phyla (a) Lenarviricota, (b) Pisuviricota (the picornavirus supergroup), (c) Kitrinoviricota, (d) Duplornaviricota, and Negarnavirota (not featured). RdRP genes with established phylogeny of interest are highlighted separately in each panel.
