Time-scaled phylogenetic analysis of SARS-CoV-2 sequences, by variant type, in study of SARS-CoV-2 spillback to wild coatis in sylvatic–urban hotspot, Brazil. Maximum-likelihood method was used to compare the complete genomic sequence of SARS-CoV-2 obtained from coati (Nasua nasua) 535 (red-outlined yellow circle) and 3,441 SARS-CoV-2 reference genomic sequences (GISAID, https://www.gisaid.org) from around the world collected through October 2021. Colors represent clades corresponding to different SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern described by the World Health Organization; yellow indicates Zeta variant sequences. The SARS-CoV-2 sequence generated in this study was deposited in the GISAID database (accession no. EPI_ISL_8800460) and SisGen (Sistema Nacional de Gestão do Patrimônio Genético, https://www.sisgen.gov.br; no. A627307).
