Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree of amino acid sequences of coding sequences of human pegivirus 2 strains from Vietnam compared with global strains and other pegiviruses. We used the general matrix with empirical amino acid frequencies, a gamma distribution of 4 rates, and invariant sites, as suggested by IQ TREE (http://www.iqtree.org), to reconstruct the phylogenetic trees. We assessed support for individual nodes using a bootstrap procedure of 10,000 replicates. Scale bar indicates amino
