Abstract Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a zoonotic virus from camels causing significant mortality and morbidity in humans the Arabian Peninsula. The epidemiology of remains poorly understood, while case-based seroepidemiological studies have been employed extensively throughout epidemic, viral sequence data not utilised to their full potential. Here we use existing MERS-CoV explore its phylodynamics two known major hosts, camels. We employ structured coalescent...
