Phylogenetic relationship between Sequence Types (International Clones- IC) and AB341-IK15. Representative assemblies from each IC were used for this analysis and are as follows: IC1- SAMN07257378, IC2 – SAMN09667773, IC3- SAMN01828181, IC4 – SAMN09951355, IC5 – SAMN09951336, IC6 – SAMN12509149, IC7 – SAMN09951357, IC8 – SAMN03069270. The Pasteur Multi-locus Sequence Type (MLST) profiles of each IC were obtained, as well as the profile for AB341-IK15 using the PubMLST online webtool. The sequences for these seven genes were aligned using Clustal W and then concatenated using Geneious Prime. RAxML generated the phylogenetic tree. AB341-IK15 is highlighted in the green box and is in closest relation to ICs 5, 6 and 7 although is found in a clade all of its own.
