Phylogenetic relationship between Atlantic and Pacific ST36 populations. Multiple genome reference-sequence alignment based phylogeny were reconstructed using REALPHY v1.09 to evaluate the evolution and relatedness of ST36 pathogenic lineages. Maximum likelihood phylogenies within the ST36 clade were reconstructed based on merged reference strains 10329, 10290, and 10296 where the merged alignment represents 92% coverage of sites of the largest reference genome (Vp10329). The branch length reflects nucleotide changes per by total number of nucleotides in the sequence. Representative strains are identified by geographic location [USA by state, as clinical (C) or environmental (E) and year isolated].
