A Evolutionary divergence of the C.1.1 Lineage supported by phylogenetic tree based on who genome alignment. The background colors of the clades on the phylogenetic tree represent different lineages. The isolation location and date were annotated in the right of tree. Red branches indicate genomes from local outbreak of mpox in Shenzhen. B Epidemiological evidence of the new C.1.1 lineage. The numbers in parentheses following the epidemic regions represent the quantity of genomes collected in the database. C Unique mutations found in each lineage compared with the reference genome (NC_063383.1) of MPXV. Mutation sites with red font indicate novel mutations compared to the lineage-defining SNPs in Nextclade database.
