Heatmaps representing distribution for mtLSU, CYTB, and SOD variants among patients infected during a Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia outbreak at a university hospital in France, 2009–2015. Patients shown in red correspond to cluster patients sharing the common C2a genotype. Patient shown in blue is the patient having the C2a genotype as minor variant (2%). Percentages shown indicate the level of mixed strain infections for each locus.
