Reference alignment showing the maps of the orthologous genetic regions (blue arrow) of Chinese carp isolate ZC1 (A) or Mississippi catfish isolate S04-690 (B) specific to the epidemic-associated genetic regions of VAh isolates (red arrow). The scales for the percent conservation and average coverage of the Illumina sequences from both the isolates aligned with epidemic-associated genetic regions of VAh isolates are shown on the left axis. The black horizontal line illustrates the continuous alignment of the sequences, and the discontinuous black line indicates the interruption of the sequence alignment. The average coverages of the ZC1 and S04-690 sequences mapped against epidemic-associated genetic regions of VAh isolates are 87× and 115×, respectively.
