The population structure of A. baumannii isolated from a variety of infections in April 2016 at three major Thai hospitals. (A) Samples were obtained from geographically distinct regions of the country. (B) Core gene phylogeny showed that the bacterial populations were circulating amongst the three hospitals; no single lineage dominated at any one location. (C) Our data in context with the global population structure based on published data. (D) A more detailed comparison of the data structure of pairwise SNP distances shows a similar distribution between our samples and a recent study from one hospital in Vietnam (Schultz et al., 2016), with a similarly high prevalence of ST2 (C), but also a considerable number of more distantly related isolates from other regions.
