FIG 2 — Minimum spanning tree displaying the phylogenetic relationship of the 178 LA-MRSA-CC398 isolates from Germany based on core-genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) analysis with SeqSphere+, including 1,569 alleles. The circles represent different allelic profiles, and the count of varying target genes between them is shown next to the connecting lines. The nine clusters are illustrated in different colors: cluster 1 in blue-gray, cluster 2 in dark green, cluster 3 in turquoise, cluster 4 in dark blue, cluster 5 in light blue, cluster 6 in yellow, cluster 7 in light green, cluster 8 in red, and cluster 9 in orange. The two isolates carrying a truncated SCCmec cassette are framed by a box. The three isolates not belonging to sequence type (ST) 398 are marked by a rhombus (ST6759), square (ST7001), or cross (ST7002).
