Spoligoforest including all the M. bovis spoligotypes obtained from Holstein cattle in the region of Altos Sur of Jalisco, Mexico. The size of each node is an increasing function of the number of isolates (i.e., the cluster size); edges between nodes reflect evolutionary relationships between spoligotypes with arrowheads pointing to descendants

Fig. 4
Evolutionary analysis by maximum likelihood using as input the concatenated SNP sequences from WGS of 34 M. bovis isolates from three municipalities of the region Altos Sur of Jalisco, Mexico: (T) Tepatitlán de Morelos, (A) Arandas, and (M) San Miguel el Alto. The tree is rooted to the reference M. bovis AF2122/97 (accession number NC_002945.4)
