Relationships among CRAB isolates via PFGE, cgMLST, and SNP. (A) PFGE patterns for selected commonly occurring PFGE types. (B) Minimum spanning tree, based on the core genome of 18 A. baumannii isolates. Colours indicate different STs according to the MLST Oxford scheme (pink shade indicates ST208 and blue shade indicates ST369). The cluster distance threshold is 9 alleles. Each circle represents one or multiple identical sequences. (C) ST369 SNP The number of SNPs between each ST369 CRAB strain heatmap. (D) The number of SNPs between each ST208 CRAB strain heatmap. The deeper the color is, the larger the SNP quantity scale.
