Linear regression plot of root-to-tip distances of the phylogenetic tree for MRSA isolates from patient T126 against the day of sampling. There were 99 isolates from patient T126 and seven isolates concurrently isolated from other patients on the adult ICU that belong to the same clade. The coefficient of determination was R2 = 0.22. Patient T126 was admitted to the ICU on day 29 of the study.
