Fig 1. S. aureus genomes clustered by shared genetic content compared to known subtypes and antibiotic resistance patterns.

Fig 1

(a) Genomes clustered using hierarchical clustering with average linkage, based on pairwise Jaccard distances between the sets of genetic features present in each genome. Clusters extracted from this hierarchy align well with (b) experimentally observed resistance patterns and (c) subtype annotations from PATRIC. Antibiotics shown are ciprofloxacin (CIP), clindamycin (CLI), erythromycin (ERY), gentamicin (GEN), sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (SXT), and tetracycline (TET).
