aSTs 1, 13 and 14, and alleles gtr5, gtr6, murI6 and atoB9 were also exclusively associated with the intermediate group, but are absent from the table as they were not found among horse isolates.
bThe STs resulting from the unique combinations of alleles at the seven loci are indicated.
cThe gtr4 allele was found in 2 STs of the intermediate group and 10 STs of the human group.
dThe recP12 allele was found in 5 STs of the intermediate group and in ST5 from the human group.
eThe atoB8 allele was found in 13 STs of the horse group and 4 STs of the intermediate group.
