Neighbor-joining tree of 14 Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis group A.I strains constructed on the basis of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) discovered from whole-genome sequencing. Lines represent major groups within A.I: red, A.I.12; purple, A.I.8; blue, A.I.3. Branch nomenclature for each group is indicated by green text. Bootstrap values for each group and subpopulation are indicated in black font. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis classifications (A1a and A1b) are indicated for
