Fig. 1. Spatio-temporal diffusion of WNV lineages in North America.

Fig. 1

Maximum clade credibility (MCC) tree obtained by continuous phylogeographic inference based on 100 posterior trees (see the text for further details). Nodes of the tree are coloured from red (the time to the most recent common ancestor, TMRCA) to green (most recent sampling time). Older nodes are plotted on top of younger nodes, but we provide also an alternative year-by-year representation in Supplementary Fig. S1. In addition, this figure reports global dispersal statistics (mean lineage dispersal velocity and mean diffusion coefficient) averaged over the entire virus spread, the evolution of the mean lineage dispersal velocity through time, the evolution of the maximal wavefront distance from the origin of the epidemic, as well as the delimitations of the North American Migratory Flyways (NAMF) considered in the USA.
