Relationship of Vibrio cholerae variable-number tandem-repeat sequence types from Haiti, 2010. Numbers represent number of repeats for the 5 alleles tested (VC0147, VC0436-7, VC1650, VCA0171, and VCA0283). Boldface indicates the ancestral sequence type; underline indicates alleles that have changed.
