Figure 2

Phylogenetic tree showing NiV detection in Pteropus hypomelanus bats in Central Java, Indonesia. Tree illustrates evolutionary relationship of NiV isolates from Pteropus hypomelanus bats collected from animal markets in Central Java, Indonesia (specimen codes MGL-K004 and MGL-K007; red font) with strains from Southeast and South Asia (GenBank accession nos., host, and country of isolation indicated). Labels at right illustrates the 2 main genotypes of NiV. Hendra virus was used as an outgroup. The tree was constructed from 400-bp nucleocapsid gene sequences by using the maximum-likelihood algorithm performed in MEGA 11 software (http://www.megasoftware.net). Numbers to the left of the nodes are bootstrap percentages (1,000 replications). Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. NiV, Nipah virus; NiV-BD, Bangladesh genotype; NiV-MY, Malaysia genotype.
