Sequence analysis of Indian SARS-CoV-2 sequences (3277 from GISAID) revealed that GR, GH, and G (GISAID) or 20B and 20A (Nextstrain) clades were the prevalent clades in India during the middle and later half of the year 2020. SARS-CoV2 sequences from North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Oceania, and Asia (without Indian sequences) were also analyzed to find the clade dynamics. Other than North America and Europe, all the other continents showed the prevalence of GR clade in the middle and later half of the year 2020. North America showed a consistent prevalence of GH clade throughout the year. And a massive increase in GV clade sequences was observed in Europe during the latter part of 2020.

The Nexstrain phylogenetic analysis of 2213 complete genomes (December 2019-November 2020, from NCBI and GISAID) from six geographical regions worldwide revealed that the genomes were grouped into seven clusters based on seven non-synonymous mutations. Among seven mutations, G614 \(clade 19A) and L323 \(clade 20A) had the highest global frequencies (>75%). The study helps to detect and describe the transmission dynamics of new variants of the virus with clinical relevance.

Phylogenetic analysis of deletion variants (red branches) and genetically diverse nondeletion variants revealed the origins of RDR variants and identified specific deletion clades/lineages. Variants of RDR1 and RDR3 are strongly polarized to specific clades and geographies. RDR variants have been present throughout the pandemic.

Phylogenetic analysis of 302 sequences (including 30 UF sequences, University of Florida) from GISAID revealed that UF-8 Isolate (GenBank accession No. MW221275.1) was closely related to early SARS-CoV-2 strains that circulated locally. 2,452 genomes that also includes 30 new UF isolates (UF1 to UF30), were retained and aligned using MAFFT v7.407.
Isolate UF-8 had 12-nucleotide in-frame deletion within ORF3a, which encodes viroporin 3a.

Phylogenetic analysis of 214 SARS-CoV-2 sequences of Israel, with 4693 SARS-CoV-2 genomes from all around the world, showed the origin, timing of the introductions and, the transmission patterns of multiple circulating clades of viruses in Israel. The time-resolved phylogeny confirmed most of the viral introductions and transmissions in the country from the passengers traveling from the United States of America. Many introductions from Europe, U.K., France, and Belgium were noticed. Phylodynamic Analysis was performed to understand the epidemiology of the disease inside the country. The reproduction number of circulating virus was inferred before and after the implementation of social distancing to track the transmission heterogeneity. The patterns of disease incidence and prevalence were also estimated to determine the timing and level of viral superspreading. The reproduction number ( R0) was found to be between 2.1 and 2.3, increasing toward R0=3.0 indicating high levels of superspreading. After the implementation of social distancing and following quarantine measures, R0 is found to be reduced by more than two-thirds.
