I would question the source and some of their conclusions, but the journal itself is legit - it is part of the ElSevier/ScienceDirect family.

I am looking at the article itself and it it directly states:
quote:


Based on its genome sequence, 2019-nCoV belongs to lineage b of Betacoronavirus, which also includes the SARS-Cov and bat CoV ZXC21...2019-nCoV shares ~76% amino acid sequence identity in the Spike (S)protein sequence with SARS-CoV and 80% with CoV ZXC21.
