Individual sequences such as RpShaanxi2011, Guangxi GX2013 and two sequences from Zhejiang Province (CoVZXC21/CoVZC45), as previously shown22,25, have strong phylogenetic recombination signals because they fall on different evolutionary lineages (with bootstrap support >80%) depending on what region of the genome is being examined. PI signals were identified (with bootstrap support >80%) for seven of these eight breakpoints: positions 1,684, 3,046, 9,237, 11,885, 21,753, 22,773 and 24,628. Softw. The pangolin coronaviruses show lower similarity to SARS-CoV-2 than bat coronavirus RaTG13 across the whole genome, but higher similarity in the spike receptor binding domain, although the similarity at either scale remains too low to implicate . Since the release of Version 2.0 in July 2020, however, it has used the 'pangoLEARN' machine-learning-based assignment algorithm to assign lineages to new SARS-CoV-2 genomes. Wang, L. et al. GARD identified eight breakpoints that were also within 50nt of those identified by 3SEQ. Bayesian evolutionary rate and divergence date estimates were shown to be consistent for these three approaches and for two different prior specifications of evolutionary rates based on HCoV-OC43 and MERS-CoV. RegionC showed no PI signals within it. The red and blue boxplots represent the divergence time estimates for SARS-CoV-2 (red) and the 2002-2003 SARS-CoV (blue) from their most closely related bat virus, with the light- and dark-colored versions based on the HCoV-OC43 and MERS-CoV centered priors, respectively. Yuan, J. et al. Maciej F. Boni, Philippe Lemey, Andrew Rambaut or David L. Robertson. Su, S. et al. The genetic distances between SARS-CoV-2 and RaTG13 (bottom) demonstrate that their relationship is consistent across all regions except for the variable loop. 56, 152179 (1992). 24, 490502 (2016). Collectively our analyses point to bats being the primary reservoir for the SARS-CoV-2 lineage. Press, H.) 3964 (Springer, 2009). RegionsAC had similar phylogenetic relationships among the southern China bat viruses (Yunnan, Guangxi and Guizhou provinces), the Hong Kong viruses, northern Chinese viruses (Jilin, Shanxi, Hebei and Henan provinces, including Shaanxi), pangolin viruses and the SARS-CoV-2 lineage.

Conducting analogous analyses of codon usage bias as Ji et al. PLoS Pathog. Divergence time estimates based on the HCoV-OC43-centred rate prior for the separate BFRs (Supplementary Table 3) show consistency in TMRCA estimates across the genome. Emerg. Hu, B. et al. Virus Evol. Grey tips correspond to bat viruses, green to pangolin, blue to SARS-CoV and red to SARS-CoV-2. You are using a browser version with limited support for CSS. D.L.R. Several of the recombinant sequences in these trees show that recombination events do occur across geographically divergent clades. Lam, T. T. et al. The virus then.

Homologous recombination is very rare or absent in human influenza A virus. Bryant, D. & Moulton, V. Neighbor-Net: an agglomerative method for the construction of phylogenetic networks. To evaluate the performance procedure, we confirmed that the recombination masking resulted in (1) a markedly different outcome of the PHI test64, (2) removal of well-supported (bootstrap value >95%) incompatible splits in Neighbor-Net65 and (3) a near-complete reduction of mosaic signal as identified by 3SEQ. Coronavirus: Pangolins found to carry related strains. 5, 536544 (2020). Are you sure you want to create this branch? The divergence time estimates for SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV from their respective most closely related bat lineages are reasonably consistent among the three approaches we use to eliminate the effects of recombination in the alignment. Lancet 383, 541548 (2013). At present, we analyzed the diversity of SARS-CoV-2 viral genomes in India to know the evolutionary patterns of viruses in the country through their pangolin lineage and GISAID-Clade. However, formal testing using marginal likelihood estimation41 does provide some evidence of a temporal signal, albeit with limited log Bayes factor support of 3 (NRR1), 10 (NRR2) and 3 (NRA3); see Supplementary Table 1. & Andersen, K. G. The evolution of Ebola virus: insights from the 20132016 epidemic. To obtain Mol. While there is involvement of other mammalian speciesspecifically pangolins for SARS-CoV-2as a plausible conduit for transmission to humans, there is no evidence that pangolins are facilitating adaptation to humans. Divergence dates between SARS-CoV-2 and the bat sarbecovirus reservoir were estimated as 1948 (95% highest posterior density (HPD): 18791999), 1969 (95% HPD: 19302000) and 1982 (95% HPD: 19482009), indicating that the lineage giving rise to SARS-CoV-2 has been circulating unnoticed in bats for decades. Forni, D., Cagliani, R., Clerici, M. & Sironi, M. Molecular evolution of human coronavirus genomes. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Situation Report 51 (World Health Organization, 2020). Because 3SEQ identified ten BFRs >500nt, we used GARDs (v.2.5.0) inference on 10, 11 and 12 breakpoints. M.F.B. c, Maximum likelihood phylogenetic trees rooted on a 2007 virus sampled in Kenya (BtKy72; root truncated from images), shown for five BFRs of the sarbecovirus alignment. (Yes, Pango is a tongue-in-cheek reference to pangolins, which were briefly suspected to have had a role in the coronavirus's originseveral of the team's computational tools are named after. A counting renaissance: combining stochastic mapping and empirical Bayes to quickly detect amino acid sites under positive selection. Evol. Originally, PANGOLIN used a maximum-likelihood-based assignment algorithm to assign query SARS-CoV-2 the most likely lineage sequence. The canine viral genome was excluded from the Bayesian phylogenetic analyses because temporal signal analyses (see below) indicated that it was an outlier. wrote the first draft of the manuscript, and all authors contributed to manuscript editing. Global epidemiology of bat coronaviruses. Natl Acad. The presence in pangolins of an RBD very similar to that of SARS-CoV-2 means that we can infer this was also probably in the virus that jumped to humans. 2). Boni, M.F., Lemey, P., Jiang, X. et al. Consistent with this, we estimate a concomitantly decreasing non-synonymous-to-synonymous substitution rate ratio over longer evolutionary timescales: 1.41 (1.20,1.68), 0.35 (0.30,0.41) and 0.133 (0.129,0.136) for SARS, MERS-CoV and HCoV-OC43, respectively. the best experience, we recommend you use a more up to date browser (or turn off compatibility mode in Subsequently a bat sarbecovirusRaTG13, sampled from a Rhinolophus affinis horseshoe bat in 2013 in Yunnan Provincewas reported that clusters with SARS-CoV-2 in almost all genomic regions with approximately 96% genome sequence identity2. 206298/Z/17/Z. In our analyses of the sarbecovirus datasets, we incorporated the uncertainty of the sampling dates when exact dates were not available. matics program called Pangolin was developed. If stopping an outbreak in its early stages is not possibleas was the case for the COVID-19 epidemic in Hubeiidentification of origins and point sources is nevertheless important for containment purposes in other provinces and prevention of future outbreaks. Alternatively, combining 3SEQ-inferred breakpoints, GARD-inferred breakpoints and the necessity of PI signals for inferring recombination, we can use the 9.9-kb region spanning nucleotides 11,88521,753 (NRR2) as a putative non-recombining region; this approach is breakpoint-conservative because it is conservative in identifying breakpoints but not conservative in identifying non-recombining regions. The coverage threshold and consensus sequence generation threshold were set to 20 and 90 respectively. Of the nine breakpoints defining these ten BFRs, four showed phylogenetic incongruence (PI) signals with bootstrap support >80%, adopting previously published criteria on using a combination of mosaic and PI signals to show evidence of past recombination events19. S. China corresponds to Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangdong provinces. Further information on research design is available in the Nature Research Reporting Summary linked to this article. Divergence time estimates based on the three regions/alignments where the effects of recombination have been removed. PANGOLIN lineage database (15, 16) was used to analyze the frequency of lineages among countries. The sizes of the black internal node circles are proportional to the posterior node support. D.L.R. Wu, Y. et al. To estimate non-synonymous over synonymous rate ratios for the concatenated coding genes, we used the empirical Bayes Renaissance countingprocedure67. Google Scholar. Early detection via genomics was not possible during Southeast Asias initial outbreaks of avian influenza H5N1 (1997 and 20032004) or the first SARS outbreak (20022003). 3). It is RaTG13 that is more divergent in the variable-loop region (Extended Data Fig. A distinct name is needed for the new coronavirus. The presence of SARS-CoV-2-related viruses in Malayan pangolins, in silico analysis of the ACE2 receptor polymorphism and sequence similarities between the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) of the spike proteins of pangolin and human Sarbecoviruses led to the proposal of pangolin as intermediary. This is not surprising for diverse viral populations with relatively deep evolutionary histories. Viral metagenomics revealed Sendai virus and coronavirus infection of Malayan pangolins (Manis javanica). PubMed But some theories suggest that pangolins may be the source of the novel coronavirus. Evol. Current sampling of pangolins does not implicate them as an intermediate host. PubMed Using the most conservative approach (NRR1), the divergence time estimate for SARS-CoV-2 and RaTG13 is 1969 (95% HPD: 19302000), while that between SARS-CoV and its most closely related bat sequence is 1962 (95% HPD: 19321988); see Fig. 62,63), the GTR+ model and 100bootstrap replicateswas inferred for each BFR >500nt. Two exceptions can be seen in the relatively close relationship of Hong Kong viruses to those from Zhejiang Province (with two of the latter, CoVZC45 and CoVZXC21, identified as recombinants) and a recombinant virus from Sichuan for which part of the genome (regionB of SC2018 in Fig. Gray inset shows majority rule consensus trees with mean posterior branch lengths for the two regions, with posterior probabilities on the key nodes showing the relationships among SARS-CoV-2, RaTG13, and Pangolin 2019.

Publishers note Springer Nature remains neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. When the first genome sequence of SARS-CoV-2, Wuhan-Hu-1, was released on 10January 2020 (GMT) on Virological.org by a consortium led by Zhang6, it enabled immediate analyses of its ancestry. Biol. Press, 2009). Effect of closure of live poultry markets on poultry-to-person transmission of avian influenza A H7N9 virus: an ecological study. 1. In the presence of time-dependent rate variation, a widely observed phenomenon for viruses43,44,52, slower prior rates appear more appropriate for sarbecoviruses that currently encompass a sampling time range of about 18years. Holmes, E. C., Rambaut, A. From this perspective, it may be useful to perform surveillance for more closely related viruses to SARS-CoV-2 along the gradient from Yunnan to Hubei. In December 2019, a cluster of pneumonia cases epidemiologically linked to an open-air live animal market in the city of Wuhan (Hubei Province), China1,2 led local health officials to issue an epidemiological alert to the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organizations (WHO) China Country Office. Because coronaviruses are known to be highly recombinant, we used three different approaches to identify non-recombinant regions for use in our Bayesian time-calibrated phylogenetic inference. 2). In the variable-loop region, RaTG13 diverges considerably with the TMRCA, now outside that of SARS-CoV-2 and the Pangolin Guangdong 2019 ancestor, suggesting that RaTG13 has acquired this region from a more divergent and undetected bat lineage. Scientists defined the pangolin lineage of this variant to be B.1.1.523 and it was originally recognized as a variant under monitoring on July 14, 2021. The idea is that pangolins carrying the virus, SARS-CoV-2, came into contact with humans. P.L. Webster, R. G., Bean, W. J., Gorman, O. T., Chambers, T. M. & Kawaoka, Y. Evolution and ecology of influenza A viruses. Specifically, using a formal Bayesian approach42 (see Methods), we estimate a fast evolutionary rate (0.00169 substitutions per siteyr1, 95% highest posterior density (HPD) interval (0.00131,0.00205)) for SARS viruses sampled over a limited timescale (1year), a slower rate (0.00078 (0.00063,0.00092) substitutions per siteyr1) for MERS-CoV on a timescale of about 4years and the slowest rate (0.00024 (0.00019,0.00029) substitutions per siteyr1) for HCoV-OC43 over almost five decades. CNN . ac, Root-to-tip (RtT) divergence as a function of sampling time for the three coronavirus evolutionary histories unfolding over different timescales (HCoV-OC43 (n=37; a) MERS (n=35; b) and SARS (n=69; c)). The consistency of the posterior rates for the different prior means also implies that the data do contribute to the evolutionary rate estimate, despite the fact that a temporal signal was visually not apparent (Extended Data Fig. 94, e0012720 (2020). In outbreaks of zoonotic pathogens, identification of the infection source is crucial because this may allow health authorities to separate human populations from the wildlife or domestic animal reservoirs posing the zoonotic risk9,10. and T.A.C. Proc. The most parsimonious explanation for these shared ACE2-specific residues is that they were present in the common ancestors of SARS-CoV-2, RaTG13 and Pangolin Guangdong 2019, and were lost through recombination in the lineage leading to RaTG13. RegionsB and C span nt3,6259,150 and 9,26111,795, respectively. the development of viral diversity. 17, 15781579 (1999). Results and discussion Genomic surveillance has been a hallmark of the COVID-19 pandemic that, in contrast to other pandemics, achieves tracking of the virus evolution and spread worldwide almost in real-time ( 4 ). For coronaviruses, however, recombination means that small genomic subregions can have independent origins, identifiable if sufficient sampling has been done in the animal reservoirs that support the endemic circulation, co-infection and recombination that appear to be common. Martin, D. P., Murrell, B., Golden, M., Khoosal, A. Aside from RaTG13, Pangolin-CoV is the most closely related CoV to SARS-CoV-2. Among the 68sequences in the aligned sarbecovirus sequence set, 67 show evidence of mosaicism (all DunnSidak-corrected P<4104 and 3SEQ14), indicating involvement in homologous recombination either directly with identifiable parentals or in their deeper shared evolutionary historythat is, due to shared ancestral recombination events. Med. A deep dive into the genetics of the novel coronavirus shows it seems to have spent some time infecting both bats and pangolins before it jumped into humans, researchers said . Aiewsakun, P. & Katzourakis, A. Time-dependent rate phenomenon in viruses. 4. 5. Posterior distributions were approximated through Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling, which were run sufficiently long to ensure effective sampling sizes >100. Wu, F. et al.

The construction of NRR1 is the most conservative as it is least likely to contain any remaining recombination signals. from the European Research Council under the European Unions Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement no. Virus Evol. In the absence of any reasonable prior knowledge on the TMRCA of the sarbecovirus datasets (which is required for grid specification in a skygrid model), we specified a simpler constant size population prior.

Holmes, E. C. The Evolution and Emergence of RNA Viruses (Oxford Univ. All authors contributed to analyses and interpretations. Google Scholar. The SARS-CoV divergence times are somewhat earlier than dates previously estimated15 because previous estimates were obtained using a collection of SARS-CoV genomes from human and civet hosts (as well as a few closely related bat genomes), which implies that evolutionary rates were predominantly informed by the short-term SARS outbreak scale and probably biased upwards. Are pangolins the intermediate host of the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)? "This is an extremely interesting . Biazzo et al. Stegeman, A. et al. PubMed Zhang, Y.-Z. Using both prior distributions, this results in six highly similar posterior rate estimates for NRR1, NRR2 and NRA3, centred around 0.00055 substitutions per siteyr1. performed codon usage analysis. B., Weaver, S. & Sergei, L. Evidence of significant natural selection in the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in bats, not humans. A.R. To gauge the length of time this lineage has circulated in bats, we estimate the time to the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) of SARS-CoV-2 and RaTG13. Zhou et al.2 concluded from the genetic proximity of SARS-CoV-2 to RaTG13 that a bat origin for the current COVID-19 outbreak is probable. Yres, D. L. et al. This long divergence period suggests there are unsampled virus lineages circulating in horseshoe bats that have zoonotic potential due to the ancestral position of the human-adapted contact residues in the SARS-CoV-2 RBD. Lie, P., Chen, W. & Chen, J.-P. A second breakpoint-conservative approach was conservative with respect to breakpoint identification, but this means that it is accepting of false-negative outcomes in breakpoint inference, resulting in less certainty that a putative NRR truly contains no breakpoints.
