Fig. Phylogenetic tree of bacteria of ST2 type based on wgMLST. Vaccine candidate strains are gray dots. Sections of the tree containing these strains are presented magnified on the right, with bootstrap support levels marked in the nodes (only values above 70). The ring diagram does not show lengths of branches because some strains have abnormally long branches. Letter T denotes the Tohama I strain used as an external representative
