*T1–T12 indicate the 12 solid organ transplant patients from the cluster; C1–C20 indicate the 20 control patients. Underlined genotypes were included for Hunter Index calculation. CYTB, cytochrome b; mtLSU, mitochondrial large subunit of ribosomal RNA; ND, undetermined genotypes when haplotypes could not be cross-linked (multiple variants in >1 locus without any clear predominance); SOD, superoxide dismutase.
†Patient carrying the C2a genotype as a minor strain.
