Minimum evolution trees based on 23 VNTR loci of 10 Burkholderia mallei isolates from Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, and Haryana states, India, compared with reference sequences. A) Comparison of Himachal Pradesh–Uttar Pradesh cluster isolates (blue circles) with 6 older B. mallei isolates from India. B) Comparison of Himachal Pradesh–Uttar Pradesh cluster isolates (red branches) with 77 previously published B. mallei isolates, including the 6 others from India (blue branches). Scale bars indicate allelic differences.
