eBURST diagram displaying the “population snapshot” of the B. pseudomallei isolates of the MLST database before (A) and after (B) the addition of the MLST data of the historical B. pseudomallei collection. The predicted group founder of all isolates is ST48 in both panels. Panel A is an eBURST diagram demonstrating the relatedness of the 760 isolates and 365 STs of the B. pseudomallei MLST database. Panel B is a comparative eBURST diagram demonstrating the alteration to the original “population snapshot” upon the addition of the 207 isolates and 80 STs of the historical B. pseudomallei strain collection to the isolates of the B. pseudomallei MLST database. The 56 novel STs encountered during the study are indicated with green halos, and the 24 existing STs encountered during the study are indicated with magenta halos. The diagrams were edited manually, and the ST numbers were omitted for clarity. The clonal complex numbers are indicated. ST60 and ST84 are indicated with arrows.
