Phylogenetic tree of BTV from Iberian lynxes (Lynx pardinus) sampled in the Iberian Peninsula during 2010–2022 (bold) and reference sequences. Tree was constructed by the neighbor-joining method (1,000 bootstraps). A) Segment 2 tree, based on 393 nucleotides of 52 sequences. BTV-1 serotype and epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus serotype 8 reference strains were included to root the tree. B) Segment 10 tree, based on 216 nucleotides of 54 sequences. Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus serotype 8 reference strain was included to root the tree. Gray circles indicate bootstrap values; only values ≥60 are shown. GenBank accession numbers are provided. Scale bars indicate number of substitutions per site. BTV, bluetongue virus.
