Figure 2

Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree of sequence type 50 isolates for study of emergent Vibrio parahaemolyticus gastroenteritis outbreaks, New Zealand, 2019–2022. Tree was constructed using core-genome single-nucleotide polymorphism alignment of all publicly available New Zealand and international V. parahaemolyticus sequence type 50 isolates detected during 1997–April 2022. The New Zealand sequence type 50 outbreak clade, which includes Australia isolates, is indicated. B) Magnification of the New Zealand V. parahaemolyticus sequence type 50 outbreak clade maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree, by specimen type and sample collection year. Bootstrap values calculated from 2,000 trees; only bootstrap values >70% are shown in red.
