Table 1. Cluster- and isolate-level concordance between SNP distances estimated by CSP2, CSP2, and NCBI Pathogen Detection.
For each species, the lowest average SNP differences came from the CSP2/CSP1 comparison, followed by CSP2/NCBI, then CSP1/NCBI. Mean slopes and correlation values were high across comparisons, and distances for E. coli were consistently higher at NCBI.
