Abstract

The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) recently reported from Wuhan (China), and Thailand, Japan, South Korea and US have been confirmed as new coronavirus [1]. The 2019-nCoV has infected several hundreds of humans and has caused many fatal cases. Determining the origin and evolution of 2019-nCoV is important for surveillance, drug discovery, and prevention of the influenza epidemics. With more and more reported pathogenic 2019-nCoV isolates, it is necessary to re-examine their origin and diversification patterns (page 1).
