*Clinical samples collected in 2011 from patients with cervical lymphadenitis at Hacettepe University Medical Faculty, Pediatric Infectious Disease unit, Ankara, Turkey. CanSNP, canonical single-nucleotide polymorphism; MLVA, multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis; ND, not determined. †Subgroups published in (3,4,6,7). CanSNP branches tested on samples in this study: B.3, B.4, B.5, B.6, B.7, B.8, B.9, B.10, B.11, B.13, B.20, B.21, B.22, B.26, B.27, B.28, B.29, B.30, B.31, B.32, and B.33. ‡MLVA markers (M03, M05, M06, M20) (2). §Subgroup classification based on approximation because genotype for B.33 remains unresolved. ¶This patient was an adult (all others were children).
