Fig. 7. Embedding of the neonatal cohorts within a general E. faecalis species-wide collection.

Outer metadata blocks depict the delivery mode of the cohorts (caesarean, light blue; vaginal, orange), aligned against the neighbour-joining (NJ) phylogeny from the core distances. Ten largest sequence types in the combined collections are highlighted within the branches, and the sequence types previously defined as hospital-adapted²⁰ are coloured in red.
