Pairwise genetic distance heatmaps for the partial coding regions of the rabies virus (RABV) N and L genes corresponding to the three clusters recovered from the phylogeny shown in Fig. 1. Pairwise genetic distances calculated for the RABV N (A) and L (B) gene sequences. The legend provides values in substitutions per site, with red indicating the highest values of paired genetic distance and blue indicating values close to zero. The RABV reference sequence (GenBank accession NC_001542.1) is denoted as “Ref.”
