To do so, we used two measures of population differentiation, the GST and D statistics, which characterize changes in allele frequency across populations and can show fitness differences between subpopulations (30–32). Genetic distances between two subpopulations can range between 0 and 1, indicating no and complete differentiation, respectively. We initially compared 30 genomes sampled from the initial outbreak in Wuhan, China, with subsampled alignments of the 18,484 genomes sampled subsequently across the globe. Although distances varied across genes, the median genetic distance between these subpopulations was small for both GST (0.0049 ± 0.0047) and D (0.0053 ± 0.0272), indicating little differentiation between the initial outbreak and its global derivatives in the pandemic (Fig. 4A). We then compared subpopulations sampled before and after each consecutive week. Similarly, genetic distances between subpopulations were small for both GST (0.0058 ± 0.0096) and D (0.0098 ± 0.0650) and tended to narrow over time rather than diverge (Fig. 4 B and C). Signatures of host adaptation can also be seen in the branching patterns of viral phylogenies. Bursts in transmissibility are emblematic of increases in relative viral fitness and are reflected in imbalances in the phylogeny, which can be estimated at each internal node (SI Appendix, Figs. S9 and S10) (33–35). We estimated phylogenetic η (36, 37) at each internal node of the SARS-CoV-2 phylogeny reconstructed from subsampled (10%) alignments and compared the distribution of estimates through time to phylogenies simulated under models of neutral and positive time-dependent rates (b(t) = beα(t)). Simulation analyses demonstrated that this metric was robust against sampling fraction (SI Appendix, Fig. S10). The distribution of η in the SARS-CoV-2 phylogenies adhered to expectations of the neutral model and deviated significantly (Student’s t test, P \u003c 0.001) from those of positive time-dependent rates for selection coefficients α ≥ 0.2 (Fig. 4 D and E). Together, the SARS-CoV-2 population and phylogenetic dynamics showed little evidence that the global spread of SARS-CoV-2 was related to viral fitness effects.\nFig. 4.

To do so, we used two measures of population differentiation, the GST and D statistics, which characterize changes in allele frequency across populations and can show fitness differences between subpopulations (30–32). Genetic distances between two subpopulations can range between 0 and 1, indicating no and complete differentiation, respectively. We initially compared 30 genomes sampled from the initial outbreak in Wuhan, China, with subsampled alignments of the 18,484 genomes sampled subsequently across the globe. Although distances varied across genes, the median genetic distance between these subpopulations was small for both GST (0.0049 ± 0.0047) and D (0.0053 ± 0.0272), indicating little differentiation between the initial outbreak and its global derivatives in the pandemic (Fig. 4A). We then compared subpopulations sampled before and after each consecutive week. Similarly, genetic distances between subpopulations were small for both GST (0.0058 ± 0.0096) and D (0.0098 ± 0.0650) and tended to narrow over time rather than diverge (Fig. 4 B and C). Signatures of host adaptation can also be seen in the branching patterns of viral phylogenies. Bursts in transmissibility are emblematic of increases in relative viral fitness and are reflected in imbalances in the phylogeny, which can be estimated at each internal node (SI Appendix, Figs. S9 and S10) (33–35). We estimated phylogenetic η (36, 37) at each internal node of the SARS-CoV-2 phylogeny reconstructed from subsampled (10%) alignments and compared the distribution of estimates through time to phylogenies simulated under models of neutral and positive time-dependent rates (b(t) = beα(t)). Simulation analyses demonstrated that this metric was robust against sampling fraction (SI Appendix, Fig. S10). The distribution of η in the SARS-CoV-2 phylogenies adhered to expectations of the neutral model and deviated significantly (Student’s t test, P \u003c 0.001) from those of positive time-dependent rates for selection coefficients α ≥ 0.2 (Fig. 4 D and E). Together, the SARS-CoV-2 population and phylogenetic dynamics showed little evidence that the global spread of SARS-CoV-2 was related to viral fitness effects.\nFig. 4.
