Fig. 4.— — Population structure and core genome recombination in S. aureus and S. epidermidis. Phylogenetic tree reconstructions from core gene alignments, using an approximation of the maximum-likelihood algorithm, for (A) 181 S. aureus and (B) 143 S. epidermidis genomes. Tree branches are colored according to recombining population clusters inferred by BNG and histograms indicate the total length of recombining sequence inferred. (C) The distributions of unique alleles of recombining (R; light gray) and nonrecombining (NR; white) core genes. Asterisks indicate a statistical significance of P < 0.0001, n.s. denotes no significance.
