Overview of the detected E. coli ST types and the affiliation to ST Complexes determined by MLST based on seven genes, adk, fumC, purA, recA, gyrB, icd, and mdh using the E. coli database (http://mlst.warwick.ac.uk/mlst/dbs/Ecoli/).

NN: ST type which was not present in the MLST database. n.d: Sequence type not present in reference database. Phylogenetic group assignment was done by multiplex PCR, A*: E. coli assigned to group A but a yjaA gene was also present. S: blaSHV, T: blaTEM, C: blaCTX-M (multiplex PCR),+ not sequenced; identified by group specific CTX-M primer; n.d.: non defined.Overview of the detected E. coli ST types and the affiliation to ST Complexes determined by MLST based on seven genes, adk, fumC, purA, recA, gyrB, icd, and mdh using the E. coli database (http://mlst.warwick.ac.uk/mlst/dbs/Ecoli/).
