FIG 1
Sample coverage tracks from UCSC browser on ASM985889v3/SARS-CoV-2 assembly. Loaded tracks include UniProt Proteins track, RefSeq Acc track, and sample coverage tracks obtained after mapping raw reads to ASM985889v3 and converted using BEDTools genomecov function. Highlighted position refers to D614G variation in S protein revealed in all sequenced cases.

FIG 2
Maximum likelihood phylogenetic trees of nucleotide sequences from GISAID sequences available at 03-16-2020 and hCoV-19/Italy/FVG/ICGEB_S1, _S5, _S8, and _S9. A portion of the G clade based on S variation D614G is shown with indication of the phylogenetic tree branches including reporting cases (purple) and the other two deposited Lombardy sequences (red dot).
