Caption
Whole genome sequencing of 140 COVID samples from infected individuals between April 2020 and August 2021 show infection signatures consistent with the major strain at the time represented in different color partitions. Each horizontal line illustrates a sequenced sample, and lineage specific positions are shown vertically. Gray shaded boxes represent mixed allele frequencies observed in our samples. Interestingly, we observe samples that represent mixed allele frequencies during the transition between B.1.1.7 and B.1.617.2 (purple partition).
