Phylogenetic tree of Nipah viruses from bats in Bangladesh (bold) compared with other henipaviruses, generated from full-genome sequences. Tree was constructed by using a maximum-likelihood approach, and robustness of nodes was tested with 1,000 bootstrap replicates. Sequences are labeled according to the following ordination: GenBank accession number or isolate identification number/virus type/country/host/year/strain. Numbers along branches are bootstrap values. Scale bar indicates nucleotide
