Fig 2. Maximum parsimony tree of Burkholderia pseudomallei isolates constructed using single nucleotide polymorphisms extracted from whole genome sequence data.

This reconstruction demonstrates the relatedness of New Guinean and Torres Strait isolates to other B. pseudomallei isolates from around the globe. Bootstrap values (based on 500 replicates) are shown on relevant branches. New Guinean isolates are bracketed to the right of the diagram.
