HGDI: Hunter Gaston Diversity Index, which determines the variation of the number of repeats at each locus, and ranges from 0.0 (no diversity) to 1.0 (complete diversity); CI: Confidence Interval; K: Number of different repeats present at this locus in this sample set; max(pi): Proportion of strains having the most frequent repeat number at a given locus (range 0.0 to 1.0); n: strains number according to the considered locus; in bold: locus more variable for panel 2B.

*Global HGDI calculated from published [13], [15]–[20], [22]–[23] and personal results.
