Figure 2. Phylogenetic relationships of invasive meningococcal isolates in Iceland, 1977–2004. Unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) was used to construct the tree with the Sequence Type Analysis and Recombinational Tests (START) suite of programs. Sequence types (STs) and allelic profiles are given on the right. All STs that were encountered in >3 clinical cases and all new STs are shown.
