Phylogenetic analysis of SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses in rats, Berlin, Germany, 2023. Partial sequences of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase gene from coronaviruses isolated from rats in Berlin (red text) were compared with other coronavirus sequences obtained from GenBank. Background colors indicate viruses belonging to the same coronavirus genus. The maximum-likelihood tree was calculated by using MEGA X software (https://www.megasoftware.net). Statistical support for nodes was obtained by bootstrapping (1,000 replicates); only bootstrap values >50% are shown. GenBank accession numbers are provided. Tree not drawn to scale.
