a Bray-Curtis dissimilarity index comparing sequence data for each sample. b Hierarchical clustering dendrogram of viral populations from hamster samples. The dendrogram was constructed using the Jaccard index based on the presence/absence of iSNVs in each sample. The y-axis represents the Jaccard dissimilarity measure, ranging from 0 (identical sets of mutations present in both samples) to 1 (completely different sets of mutations in each sample). Sequences are colored by sample type: GI tissues, lung tissue, oral swab, or virus inoculum.
