Phylogenetic tree of Salmonella bacteriophages. A set of genomes representing available bacteriophages belonging to the genus Jerseyvirus and one representative genome from other genera infecting Salmonella were selected from the GenBank Virus database. All pairwise comparisons of the nucleotide sequences were conducted using the Genome-BLAST Distance Phylogeny (GBDP) method under settings recommended for prokaryotic viruses using VICTOR software. The resulting intergenomic distances were used to infer a balanced minimum evolution tree with branch support via FASTME including SPR postprocessing. Branch support was inferred from 100 pseudo-bootstrap replicates each. Branches with bootstrap values below 50 were collapsed and the bootstrap values equal to or above 50 are shown on the remainder of the tree branches. Information about genus and family for each sequence was added using iTOL
