Phylogenetic structure of the Lyssavirus genus based on the complete N gene sequences of representatives from each currently recognized species. The topology was inferred using the Maximum Likelihood method. Initial trees for the heuristic search were obtained automatically by applying Neighbor-Joining and BioNJ algorithms to a matrix of pairwise distances estimated using a JTT model. Statistical significance was assessed via 100 bootstrap replicates (values > 70 are shown for key nodes)
