Phylogeny of EMRSA-16 and distribution of antibiotic resistance genes. Maximum likelihood tree based on core SNPs identified by mapping to the reference ST36 genome MRSA252. The total number of SNP sites present in the core genome alignment in this lineage was 4400 SNP sites. Branches are labeled with colors of the referral networks as indicated by the legend. Represented is the year of isolation, as well as acquisition of ermA and ermC (erythromycin resistance), ileS-2 (mupirocin resistance), aacA-aphD (aminoglycoside resistance), dfrA and dfrG (trimethoprim resistance), and ant4-1 (aminoglycoside resistance), as indicated by the legend.
