@corneliusroemer @AngieHinrichs if you roll back the history of this lineage it has been discusse multiple times , originally (branch 18 of # 537) was stemming out from EG.5.1.1 held out from Hk.3 by a reversion flip flap at 22264. So when 22264 reversion was solved it went back to HK.3 and the 14988C went unobserved .

One thing to notice is that 14988C in the EG.5.1.1 branch leading to HK.6 has also A23014T that is absent in all the HK.26/HK.3.11 sequences, although masked it is absent from all gisaid samples.

It is easy to check looking for it (T14988C, A23014A) on covspectrum all the samples found are in the HK.3 tree leading to HK.26

So i doubt it really belongs to the branch leading to HK.6 but at least it could be a "homologous recombinant" emerging from the variant magma we observed in China since mid summer 2023.

Nothing inconsistent with 14998C happening once and then getting the two children HK.6 and HK.26 no? Yeah, recombination might well be involved, who knows, but impossible to detect

Yeah to me all the three choices are equally likely.
