Figure 2

Core genome–based maximum-likelihood phylogeny of Legionella longbeachae serogroup 1 isolates corrected for recombination; source, country, year of isolation, relatedness and plasmid carriage are indicated. Related isolates are shown in the same color; those from the 2013 outbreak are indicated by gray. Isolates from the same patient are clustered together but do not co-segregate with cognate compost samples. Scale bar indicates the mean number of nucleotide substitutions per site.
