Fig. 5. Diarrheagenic E. coli isolates are phylogenetically diverse and encode many ARGs and VFs.
Phylogenetic tree inferred from core-genome alignment of 189 E. coli isolates (this study) and 40 published E. coli reference genomes (marked by *). Phylogroups are depicted as colored branches of the tree. Annotations, from inner to outer ring, denote: Gray barplots denote ARG count; E. coli pathotype (assigned by the presence/absence of specific VFs; Methods); VF count; and sample type (diarrheal or non-diarrheal). Underlying data are provided in the Source Data file.
