Fig. 1

Schematic of the phylogeny of the primate species analyzed in this study. Presence of (H)ERV-W or (H)ERV-W-related sequences in respective species is indicated with a filled or an empty circle, respectively. Primates’ parvorders and infraorders are indicated in italics and bold, respectively. Estimated ages of divergences of evolutionary lineages in millions of years ago are given near tree nodes and were taken from Steiper and Young 2006 [39] (first number) and Perelman et al. 2011 [40] (second number). Species marked with an * lack assembled reference genome sequences
