Prophages are common in sequenced Porphyromonas gingivalis isolates. Phylogenetic relationships among Pg shown on the left (79 strains; 88 leaves, including 3 substrains and 6 strains with independent assemblies), based on concatenated ribosomal protein genes. Relationships among Pg phages shown in midpoint-rooted tree at the top (30 full, 5 partial; “b” suffix indicates version of an “a” phage found in a different assembly of the Pg strain), based on whole genome nucleotide BLAST distance and scaled by VICTOR [28] d0 formula (recommended for nucleic acid datasets). Candidate genus- and species-level clusters are shown for full-length phages in the yellow bars. Three higher-order clades of phages defined by distinct insertion sites in host genomes (by full-length phages only) are highlighted (see color legend). Colored cells in the matrix indicate the assemblies in which each phage was found
