Extended Data Fig. 2

The color denoted the ratio of the mutation’s frequency to the frequency of all mutations in the particular lineage. The top five mutations occurring most frequently in each lineage are shown, while the sites with just one high-frequency mutation were excluded. The mutations that had been fixed in the lineage were labeled in grey. The antibody epitope groups that were evaded by the mutation in the right panel are labeled in the left panel.
