MSLT dendogram showing the 30 STs of the 96 <i>B</i>. <i>hyodysenteriae</i> isolates from 2014/16.

<p>The dendrogram is based on consensus sequences constructed from combined individual distance matrices of nucleotide sequences from seven genes <i>adh</i>, <i>alp</i>, <i>est</i>, <i>gdh</i>, <i>glpK</i>, <i>pgm</i> and <i>thi</i>. STs shared with historic isolates found in the PubMLST database are indicated in bold (these were all of Australian origin). The STs of the two weakly hemolytic <i>B</i>. <i>hyodysenteriae</i> isolates are indicated with an asterisk. The length of the scale bar represents 10-nucleotide substitution in 100 base pairs of the sequenced gene fragment.
