Fig. 8. Event matrix displaying colonisation identities with respect to E. faecalis lineages between subsequent time points.

The figure shows events corresponding to either transition from one E. faecalis lineage (rows) to another E. faecalis lineage (columns) or persistence of the same lineage (diagonal). a Events for the vaginal delivery cohort with samples from the infancy period excluded, and b Events for the caesarean section delivery cohort with infancy period excluded. Darker shades of purple denote more common events. Lineages shown were visited at least twice across the whole set of samples.
