FIG 3.

eBURST diagram showing the clustering of E. coli STs belonging to the 6 main complexes isolated from river waters in southern Taiwan: A, clonal complex of sequence type 10 (STC10; n = 15); B, STC58 (n = 18); C, STC46 (n = 11); D, STC4623 (n = 4); E, STC641 (n = 9); F, STC336 (n = 4). E. coli strains from the same ancestor based on the entire MLST data set were grouped and are indicated with black circles. Each ST is represented as a node. Single-locus variants (SLV) are connected with a purple line, and double-locus variants (DLV) are connected with a blue line. Strains that shared 5 of the 7 alleles were grouped into a single clonal complex.
