Coronavirus Phylogeny
Geometric approach analyzes phylogenetic relationships of coronaviruses
Published in TB and Outbreaks Week, September 13th, 2005
"A novel coronavirus has been identified as the cause of the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Previous phylogenetic analyses based on sequence alignments show that SARS-CoVs form a new group distantly related to the other three groups of previously characterized coronaviruses," scientists in People's Republic of China report.
"In this paper, a geometric approach based on the Z-curve representation of the whole genome sequence is proposed to analyze the phylogenetic relationships of coronaviruses. The evolutionary distances are obtained...
