Diversity of vertebrate-associated viruses in East Africa. a Maximum likelihood phylogenetic trees of major viral families harboring replication-associated proteins (Additional file 1: Table S4). The name of the viral family is shown above each tree. The solid black circles on each branch node represent bootstrap values above 50. The tip nodes on each tree represent an average of 95% nucleotide identity (vANI95) representatives identified in the present study, with the color indicating the host genus and the shape representing the host order, as listed in the bottom panel. b Prevalence among distinct host individuals of each viral family in bats, rodents, and major (n > 50) host genera. c Completeness of representative genomes in each viral family, with the color indicating genome completeness. d Distribution of viral abundance (measured by reads per kilobase of transcript per million reads mapped (RPKM)) in each viral family. e Amino acid identity of replication-associated proteins (RAP-AAI) between the viruses identified in this study and the viruses collected from public databases in bat and rodent samples
