Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree from investigation of antimicrobial-resistant clonal complex 11 Neisseria meningitidis–associated urethritis cluster, Thailand. The tree is based on core-genome single-nucleotide polymorphisms of 259 clonal complex 11 N. meningitidis isolates collected from symptomatic male urethritis patients, representing the N. meningitidis urethritis clade. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. NmUC-B, N. meningitidis urethritis clade–subclade B.
