Figure 3

Genome population structure of zoonotic Streptococcus suis in Europe. The maximum-likelihood tree was reconstructed using IQ-TREE (18) with a core genome alignment produced with Panaroo (16). Color triangles at branch tips indicate country of collection; color rings indicate lineage (CC). The inner color ring indicates ST and is labeled accordingly. The outer color ring indicates the serotype as determined by the antigenic properties of the cps. We used iTOL (https://itol.embl.de) to visualize the tree. cps, capsular polysaccharide; NA, not available; ST, sequence type.
