Human sample CXZ1501H collected in 2015 and canine sample CXZ1201D collected in 2012 are placed in the China IV lineage within the Arctic-like-2 lineage, but human sample CXZ1704H, collected in 2017, is placed in the Indian Subcontinent lineage with reference strains from India, Sri Lanka and Nepal, with the Chinese strain placing closest to the Nepal strains, consistent with geographical proximity. Human sample CXZ1601H collected in 2016 is placed in the China I lineage, closed with strains from Yunnan, China. Horizontal bar indicates genetic distance. Branches are colored to indicate the seven different lineages circulating in China(Blue, China I; Black, China II; Yellow, China III / Cosmopolitan; Green, China IV / Arctic-like-2; Orange, China V; Red, China VI; Purple, China VII / Indian subcontinent). Taxa are in the format (ACCESSION NO/ STRAIN/ COUNTRY-PROVINCE). The strains from Tibet are highlighted with red taxa.
