Main Article

Figure 13

Temporal distribution of Yersinia pestis strains in a study of ecologic, geoclimatic, and genomic factors modulating plague epidemics in primary natural focus, Brazil. The graph shows genomic characterization of Y. pestis strains from this study compared with the number of human plague cases per year. Scales for the y-axes differ substantially to underscore patterns, but do not permit direct comparisons.
