Abstract excerpt
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV), which belongs to the a family, has shown the emergence of the A2b2 clade as the dominant global genotype. Whether this represents true evolutionary selection or surveillance artefacts remains unclear. We analysed 315 complete HMPV genome sequences (1994-2024) from the Nextstrain database using sampling-corrected statistical approaches, including temporal homogeneity testing,...
