Retracing Phylogenetic, Host and Geographic Origins of Coronaviruses with Coloured Genomic Bootstrap Barcodes: SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 as Case Studies

Phylogenetic trees of coronaviruses are difficult to interpret because they undergo frequent genomic recombination. Here, we propose a new method, coloured genomic bootstrap (CGB) barcodes, to highlight the polyphyletic origins of human sarbecoviruses and understand their host and geographic origins...
