Molecular Characterization of Glycopeptide-Resistant Enterococci from Hospitals of the Picardy Region (France)

Figure 1

PFGE dendrogram with the corresponding MLST sequence types of the GRE isolates, digested with SmaI. Strains were clustered by the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA). Each row represents a unique PFGE type with its unique PFGE pattern. The corresponding MLST sequence type (ST) is shown with the corresponding strains. Molecular weight: (MW). Bacteriophage λ-ladder is given in kbp (48.5 kb–485.0 kb) *PFGE type A (PA) isolates 3, 4, 6–8, 10–13–24, 27, 29–32, 34, 36, 37, 39–43, 45, 46, 49–53, 55–60, 63–101, 103–115, 117–138. (+): positive.
