Phylogenetic tree of partial (97.5%) Marburg virus nucleic acid sequence detected in Egyptian rousette bats in Matlapitsi Cave, Limpopo Province, South Africa, 2013 (bold; GenBank accession no. MG725616) and complete nucleic acid sequences of representative Marburg virus strains from GenBank. Node values indicate posterior probability percentages obtained from 1,000,000 generations in MrBayes version 3.2.6 (http://mrbayes.sourceforge.net/download.php). Scale bar indicates substitutions per site.
