Legend:
The table shows percent pairwise sequence similarities calculated from a multiple sequence alignment generated for MSV sequences only using DNAMAN ver. 3.0. Similarities between maize-type isolates only are shown in blue, and between wheat/grass types only, are in maroon. Similarities between grass/wheat viruses and maize-type viruses are in green, and between MSV-Set and other non-maize types, are in red.
