Paleovirus MSAs

Multiple sequence alignments constructed in this study are linked together using GLUE's ‘[alignment tree](../assets/images/alignment tree concept small.png)’ data structure. Alignments in the project include:

1. A single ‘root’ alignment constructed to represent proposed homologies between representative members of major parvovirus lineages (including extinct lineages represented only by EPVs).
2. ‘Genus-level’ alignments constructed to represent proposed homologies between the genomes of representative members of specific parvovirus genera and EPV reference sequences.
3. ‘Tip’ alignments in which all taxa are derived from a single EPV lineage.
