Main Article

Figure 1

Phylogeny of group B Streptococcus isolates belonging to ST103 recovered from cattle and human populations in Brazil, 1990‒2021. The tree was built based on single-nucleotide polymorphisms extracted from an alignment outside recombination regions, created by mapping reads of each isolate to the sequence of the ST103 reference strain GBS85147 (GenBank accession no. CP010319.1). Scale bar indicates substitutions per site. AMR, antimicrobial resistance; neg, negative; pos, positive; ST, sequence type.
