Data and analysis files for the manuscript:

“Reconstructing the viral histories of human, simian, and prosimian immunodeficiency viruses across multiple evolutionary timescales”

This repository contains the sequence alignments, BEAST XML files, phylogenetic tree outputs, and R code used to reconstruct the evolutionary history of HIV, SIV, and pSIV lineages using the Prisoner of War (PoW) framework.

Repository contents

Sequence alignments

  • Fullgenome.fasta
    Full-genome alignment of the complete lentivirus dataset used in the study, including HIV, SIV, and pSIVgml.

  • hiv_clock_dataset.fasta
    Time-stamped HIV-1 group M alignment used to estimate short-term substitution rates for each non-recombinant region (NRR).

BEAST XML files for temporal signal and clock analyses

For each non-recombinant region (NRR), the repository contains two BEAST XML files:

  • NRR_*.xml
    BEAST XML files used to infer the ultrametric genetic-distance trees for each NRR under the HKY substitution model. These trees provide the input distance trees for the downstream PoW transformation

These XML files correspond to the analyses used to generate the posterior tree files from which the PoW-transformed time-scaled divergence trees were constructed.

  • NRR_*_dated_iso_v1.xml
    Isochronous analysis for the relevant NRR.

  • NRR_*_dated_hetero_v1.xml
    Heterochronous (tip-dated) analysis for the relevant NRR.

These two sets of XML files were used for Bayesian Evaluation of Temporal Signal (BETS) via stepping-stone sampling to compare isochronous and heterochronous models and assess temporal signal in each NRR.

* denotes the NRR number.

PoW-transformed trees

  • MCC_filtered_PoWtransformed_NRR_*.tree
    Maximum clade credibility (MCC) trees obtained after applying the PoW distance-to-time transformation to the NRRs with sufficient temporal sign
