I spotted this sublineage of XBB.1.5 that seems accumulating fastly sequences in Germany, Austria (spike only samples), Netherlands and was sampled also in England, Scotalnd, Singapore (one local case and one in a traveller from Switzerland.

It captured my attention cause it is characterized by two spike mutation one in Rbd and the other right after RBD

Defining mutations:
XBB.1.5 > > C920T > C21910A > S:p521S (C23123T) > SPike:I410V (A22790G )

Tree ( note that 13 spike only sequences are missing from it):

Predicted composite fitness is not better than original, but i dont know if any epistasis is at work here ( @thomaspeacock) :

54 sequences as today, just from march uploads i see Iceland, Italy, Usa , Netherlands, Germany , Austria. I think this deserves a designation. @corneliusroemer @InfrPopGen

@corneliusroemer @thomasppeacock @InfrPopGen big jump of this sublineage in the last days:
It appears to be circulating in Germany , Austria, Denmark and Netherlands
More than half of its samples have been collected after 20th of february,
Its prevalence in the last 20 days in Austria Denmark and Netherlands is around 1%

I suggest to designate it .

135 sequences with the last ones mostly coming from Austria with singlets from Denmark and Netherlands

@thomasppeacock i think that differently from other XBB.1.5 sublineages proposed by me where the spike mutation seems to identify a local lineage with limited spread outside , this is circulating widely in at least 4 countries in Central Europe.

@thomasppeacock @corneliusroemer @AngieHinrichs @InfrPopGen
Big upload yesterday from Austria it Jumped to 199, its last doubling estimated via Cornelius alternative method is 7 days ,
in comparison to 6 Days of XBB.1.16 and XBB.1+486PD215H from Africa.
Parent XBB.1.5 is far at 14 days and the XBB.1.9
Twins and XBB.1+486P*Y200C (that has orf1b:5t too) are at 11 days.

I would designate this one.

Couldn't decide where to start so went all in with the 920T branch being XBB.1.5.26, S:521S being EU.1, and S:410V being EU.1.1

It's not clear if 410V is founder or not, hence makes sense to designate also the parent with just 521S.

Thx @corneliusroemer for your great work. Agree wit your choice to differentiate it more than the proposed. thx.
