From: Mimiviridae: clusters of orthologous genes, reconstruction of gene repertoire evolution and proposed expansion of the giant virus family

Figure 9

Maximum-Likelihood reconstruction of gene loss and gene gain events in the evolution of the NCLDV. The tree from Figure 3 was used as a guide for the reconstruction. A. The inferred numbers of genes present in each node are shown. B. Numbers of mimiCOGs present with the likelihood greater than 0.9. Numbers after plus and minus signs represent numbers of genes gained or lost since the previous node.
