@Eddie Holmes I hate coronaviruses - so many trees across different parts of the genome - clearly they're just shuffling shit around like they were bacteria. Pretty concerning.

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

@Eddie Holmes And here's a simplot. There's clearly a region from ~8-18 Kb where it is about as close to SARS-CoV-2 as RaTG13... [shared file(s): SimPlot.bmp]

@Eddie Holmes Yes, and trying to work out the exact history of recombination events is bloody difficult.
