Figures & data

Figure 1. ML phylogenetic tree employing the Tamura-Nei model of nucleotide substitution with gamma distributed [with invariant sites (G + I)] rates among sites and 1000 bootstrap replications of the complete HA gene sequence (1704bp) from A/Cormorant/Namibia/141/2022 (red dot) combined with related sequences available in GenBank and GISAID. The sequences from this study are shown by filled red circles. Different subclades of clade 2.3.4.4 are also indicated.
