1 Predominant shared types (SITs) were defined as SITs representing 2% or more strains in this dataset (i.e., 4 strains or more strains in this study).

2 Worldwide distribution is only reported for regions with ≥5% of a given SITs as compared to their total number in the SITVIT2 database. Regions description [16]: AFRI (Africa), AMER (Americas), ASIA (Asia), EURO (Europe), and CARIB (Caribbean), subdivided in: C (Central), N (Northern), S (Southern) and W (Western).

3 Distribution by country is only shown for SITs with ≥5% in a given country: ARG (Argentina), BEL (Belgium), BRA (Brazil), COL (Colombia), ESP (Spain), GUF (French Guiana), HND (Honduras), HTI (Haiti), ITA (Italy), PER (Peru), USA (United States), VEN (Venezuela), ZAF (South Africa).
