Phylogenetic relationships of C. jejuni and C. coli isolates based on core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST).

Caption

Numbers on the connecting lines represent the number of allelic differences, with pairwise missing loci ignored. Sequence types (STs) and clonal complex (CC) assignments were determined using the standard 7-gene multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme. The GrapeTree visualization shows isolates grouped into CCs (gray-shaded areas) and colored according to their farm of origin.
