Figure 3. Phylogenic tree with 158 S. aureus CC398 strains (modified Parsimony method, circular representation), based on the analysis of 319 genes and alleles by DNA microarrays.

Figure 3

Since the PCR analysis of the agr alleles confirmed that all the strains were agr 1, the analysis of the results of DNA microarrays concerned only 319 genes and alleles. MSSA group is subdivided in bla− and bla+ clusters, and MRSA group in SCCmec IV and SCCmec V clusters.
