Fig. 2 — Molecular phylogenetic analysis of the new variant by UShER. (A) The phylogenetic tree (both Radial and Unrooted) depicting the position of 129 strains of the new variant (labelled as uploaded sample/new variant, red color) within the 1127 SARS-CoV-2 strains of different clades or variants. Each color is representing a different clade/lineage. (B) The branch of phylogenetic tree (made by UShER) containing 129 strains of the new variant (B1.1.526). (C) The sub-branch of the new lineage (B.1.1.526) illustrating 27 strains with additional S: E484K mutation. (D) The divergence tree of 129 SARS-CoV-2 strains of the novel lineage B.1.1526. (E) Frequency distribution of SARS-CoV-2 strains of the novel lineage B.1.1.526 harboring varying numbers of coexisting mutations.
