FIG. 2.

Distribution of SPATEs among the ECOR collection. Phylogenetic tree of the ECOR isolates showing the distribution of vat and SPATE-encoding genes where each locus is represented by a shaded box as indicated in the figure. The number of the ECOR isolate is given in boldface, and each of the major phylogenetic branches is indicated. The vat gene is preferentially associated with the B2 phylogenetic cluster, whereas SPATE-encoding genes show a wider distribution. The figure was adapted from reference 20.
