Figure 1

Geographic location of 28 wild boar Escherichia coli O139:H1 strains in France (A) and phylogeny represented as a minimum spanning tree (B) using BioNumerics 7.6.3 (bioMérieux, https://www.biomerieux.com). Sizes of the discs represent number of isolates. Colors of the discs represent year of isolation (green, 2013–2016; red, 2019). Numbers of differing single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are indicated on connecting lines between the nodes.
