Figure 2. Maximum-likelihood whole-genome phylogeny and geographic location of rabies virus variants, northeastern United States and Canada, 2016–2017, including the rabid raccoon (green triangle), river otter (green diamond), and cat (purple square) found in raccoon rabies virus–free zones, Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island, New York, USA . A) Midpoint-rooted, maximum-likelihood sequence analysis depicts the relationships among variants collected from New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Maine, USA, and Ontario, Canada. Black boxes indicate nodes with >95% bootstrap support. Bootstrap support <50% is not shown. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. B) Location (by county) of virus isolation. Colors represent the major clades or subclades depicted in tree, and the size of symbols is proportional to the number of rabies samples isolated in that county. ON, Ontario.
