  1. aThe age of recombination sites in Greece, Iran and Turkey were estimated with reference to the results of our Bayesian phylogenetic analyses. Only the oldest ten recombination sites are listed. The common recombination sites in these countries were estimated from the tree including all isolates (data not shown). Nucleotide positions show locations of individual genes numbered as in the original UK 1 genome57.
  2. bInter-, interlineage recombination site; intra, intralineage recombination site.
  3. cThe youngest and oldest ages are shown for recombination age. The youngest and oldest ages were estimated from the stem and crown ages, respectively. Estimates are given in YBP (years before present; 2012).
  4. d95% credibility intervals are shown in parentheses for stem and crown ages.
