Main Article

Figure

Median-joining network of whole-genome sequenced isolates of strain C8-LPMDR found in Italy, Peru, and Spain, 2007–2017. Network 4.6.1.6 (http://www.fluxus-engineering.com) was used to perform network analysis. Each dot along the lines linking isolates corresponds to a single-nucleotide polymorphism difference. Isolates within the same box share identical sequences. Mv1 corresponds to an unsampled case inferred from the network topology. Sequences were deposited in the European Bioinformatics In
