Figure 2. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) results of the ST1420 strains of A) Tochigi strains and B) Tottori strains of Bacillus cereus isolates, Japan. The 80% similarity cutoff for PFGE cluster typing is shown as a vertical line in the phylogenetic tree. Names of strains of sequence type 1420 are indicated in red. The Tochigi_ID31_#3 was not analyzed. ID, identification. Scale bars indicate percent similarity.
