Identification of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern in nasal swab and tissues. Next-generation sequencing was used to determine the percent composition of the SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern Delta and Omicron BA.2, present in the inoculum, swab samples and tissues collected from the co-infected calves. Reads were analyzed using the VirStrain (Version 1.12) software package to determine the genetic composition (% of each lineage) of SARS-CoV-2 RNA present in samples. The genome sequences from the virus stocks used in our challenge experiment were used to construct the reference database for VirStrain lineage assignment.
