Phylogenetic relationships of 8 rodents from which mammarenavirus isolates were obtained in this study (bold) and reference taxonomic voucher sequences from GenBank. Tree was constructed based on neighbor-joining analysis of a 136-bp cytochrome b barcode sequence. Values at nodes indicate the level of bootstrap support from 1,000 replicates. Scale bar indicates base substitutions per site. GenBank accession numbers, rodent reference number, and country of collection are indicated. RSA, Republic of South Africa; ZIM, Zimbabwe.
