Inferred phylogenetic relationships of primate T-lymphotropic virus (PTLV)–1 long terminal repeat (LTR) sequences by neighbor-joining analysis. Sequences from wild nonhuman primates (NHPs) in Cameroon generated in the current study are in boldface. Human T-lymphotropic virus–1 seqences are italicized. Support for the branching order was determined by 1,000 bootstrap replicates; only values &gt;60% are shown.<!-- INSERT SHAPE --><!-- INSERT SHAPE --> STLV, simian T-lymphotropic virus. See Figure
