Minimum-spanning tree of multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) of Salmonella enterica serotype 1,4,[5],12:–:– strains isolated from humans and nonhumans during 2001–2009, France. Each MLVA type is indicated by 1 node or branch tip, displayed as circles that are connected by branches of minimum-spanning tree. The length and the color of the branches represent genetic distances (changes in loci) between 2 neighboring types. The sizes of the different color circles depend on thei

Figure. Minimum-spanning tree of multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) of Salmonella enterica serotype 1,4,[5],12:–:– strains isolated from humans and nonhumans during 2001–2009, France. Each MLVA type is indicated by 1 node or branch tip, displayed as circles that are connected by branches of minimum-spanning tree. The length and the color of the branches represent genetic distances (changes in loci) between 2 neighboring types. The sizes of the different color circles depend on their population size. Wedges in circles indicate the proportion of isolates from respective sources with a particular MLVA type. A complex is shown in the black rectangle, based on maximum neighbor distance of changes at 2 loci and minimum size of 2 types. This specific complex linked the tiramisu food poisoning strains and other loci-derived strains for 2005–2009.
