Figure 1

Time-scaled phylogeny reconstructed from whole genomes of the type SAT2 topotype XIV foot-and-mouth disease virus in study of eastern Africa origin of SAT2 topotype XIV foot-and-mouth disease virus outbreaks, western Asia, 2023. Tips are colored according to the country of isolation. Internal nodes colored in red identify those clades resulting with a posterior probability of >0.75. The 95% Bayesian credible interval reporting uncertainty region in the timing of each ancestral node is represented by the light blue horizontal bars. The inset shows the correlation of the SAT2 topotype XIV root-to-tip divergence with the time of sample collection. BAR, Bahrain; ETH, Ethiopia; IRQ, Iraq; JOR, Jordan; OMN, Oman; TUR, Turkey.
