A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of 45 herpesviruses was performed based on whole-genome sequences. We used 4 methods, namely the alignment of conserved gene sequences (excluding 5 herpesviruses), compositional vector tree (CVTree) method, local homology analysis, and gene content analysis. The obtained results showed good consistency between the phylogenetic trees prepared by these methods and likewise, the obtained classification of the herpesviruses was consistent with their current taxonomic designation. The herpesviruses with the ambiguous classification or not assigned in the family or with the newly published genomes were also phylogenetically classified.
基于全基因组序列对45种疱疹病毒进行了全面的系统发育分析。我们使用了4种方法，即保守基因序列比对（不包括5种疱疹病毒）、组成向量树（CVTree）方法、局部同源性分析和基因含量分析。所得结果表明，这些方法构建的系统发育树之间具有良好的一致性，同样，所得的疱疹病毒分类与它们当前的分类命名一致。分类不明确或未在该科中分类以及新公布基因组的疱疹病毒也进行了系统发育分类。
