One-on-one alignments, using Zika virus EvoPrinter, a process we term SNP profiling, provides an overall view of SNP differences between two strains. Evidence of recombination derives from the presence of a region of low SNP differences surrounded by regions of high SNP differences. Using SNP profiling, we have sought evidence of recombination within Asian ZIKV lineages. SNP profile of the Zika_KY328290.1_China_2016 strain, when aligned with strains from French Polynesia, Tonga, and the Philippines, identified two genomic regions that have significantly higher SNP densities flanking a region of ~900 bases that exhibited no SNP differences. The smaller region of near identity identifies the 'minor parent' of the recombinant This identifies the French Polynesia and Tonga as closely related to the 'minor parents' of the recombinant China sequence. The most closely related Zika sequences to the Chinese sequence, two Thailand sequences, differed from the China sequence by 81 and 85 bases. This indicates that the 'major parent' of the China strain is related to the Thailand sequences, but that these two sequences have diverged from the historical major parent. The illustration to the left shows one-on-one alignments between the China strain and strains from French Polynesia and Tonga. As a negative control we show an alignment of the China strain to one from the Philippines. Alignment of the China sequence with sequences from Brazil (not shown) reveal that there is only a single base pair difference within this region of the minor parent from the China sequence.
