*MLVA, multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis; PFGE, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; VNTR, variable-number tandem-repeat. †PFGE profile number obtained after restriction with NotI and SfiI respectively (NotI/SfiI). The number in parentheses refers to the number of isolates sharing the same profile.
