Comparison of SNV distances (in red) between samples from geographically distinct cohorts – between S. aureus samples collected in East England and Oxford, U.K., respectively, and between E. faecium samples collected in Victoria, Australia and Cambridge, U.K. – to the quantiles obtained for same-patient distances (in blue). Most of the inter-site distances fall above the 80% same-patient threshold (see Fig. 4), except for the conserved-gene method.
