Minimum-spanning tree based on multilocus variable number tandem repeat (MLVA) analysis of genotypes showing genetic relationships among 98 Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica isolates from Spain with reference to 2 human tularemia outbreaks in 1997–1998 and 2007–2008, respectively. White sections in circles indicate F. tularensis subsp. holarctica isolates recovered during the first human tularemia outbreak (1997–1998), and black sections indicate isolates recovered during the second outbr
