Figure 2

Phylogenetic tree and corresponding heatmap of 6 Shigella spp. isolates carrying antimicrobial resistance genes recovered from patients in Kenya with acute or severe diarrheal disease. The phylogenetic tree was constructed by using a maximum-likelihood single-nucleotide polymorphism core genome alignment with a reference strain. Isolates are identified by reference genome identification numbers. Tree scale bar measures substitutions per site. AMR, antimicrobial resistance; AST, antimicrobial susceptibility testing; AZM, azithromycin; CIP, ciprofloxacin; LEV, levofloxacin; ST, sequence type.
