Phylogenetic analyses of human and animal pegiviruses, Germany. We constructed a maximum-likelihood tree on the basis of the complete coding region and used the general time reversible model for modeling of substitutions. Bootstrap analysis was performed with 200 replicates. Numbers along branches are percentage bootstrap values. GenBank accession numbers are in parentheses. Arrow indicates strain isolated in this study. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. BPgV, bat pegivirus,
