Tracing the environmental footprint of the Burkholderia pseudomallei lipopolysaccharide genotypes in the tropical “Top End” of the Northern Territory, Australia

Fig 4

Maximum parsimony phylogeny of 175 Burkholderia pseudomallei genomes constructed using 219,075 biallelic SNPs.

The Australian strain MSHR1153 was used as a reference for Illumina read mapping, and the tree was rooted with MSHR0668 based on the most ancestral B. pseudomallei isolate identified in a larger study [27]. Strains with multilocus sequence type (ST) homoplasy and their corresponding geographical locations in the Top End region, Northern Territory, Australia, are indicated by the outermost text. The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) genotype of each strain is indicated by the coloured ring. Blue-coloured branches indicate the non-Australian clade. Consistency index for tree = 0.2. Interactive Tree of Life (ITOL) was used to annotate the tree (https://itol.embl.de).
