Fig. 1From: The evaluation and application of multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) for the molecular epidemiological study of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Enteritidis infectionDendrograms for PFGE a using restriction enzyme XbaI and MLVA b performed on six S. Enteritidis outbreaks. The PFGE dendrogram was generated using the Dice coefficient (optimization 1.5 % and position tolerance 1.5 %) and unweighted-pair group method with arithmetic averages algorithm (UPGMA) algorithm. The MLVA dendrogram was generated using the categorical coefficient and UPGMA algorithmBack to article page
