Fig. 2 in Genetic characterization of Strongyloides fuelleborni infecting free-roaming African vervets (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts

Fig. 2. Hierarchical tree of clustered distances generated from genotyped S. fuelleborni from St Kitts vervets and other Strongyloides sp. genotypes This unrooted tree was generated using Wards method (Ward, 1963) to cluster a pairwise distance matrix computed from 285 Strongyloides genotypes, including 48 from St. Kitts vervets. Branches are colored according to their cluster membership (A through H). We introduce S. fuelleborni type H (pink star) identified from St. Kitts vervets, noting that an H-type isolate was found previously in a human from Guinea-Bissau. Colored peripheral bars reflect the host species from which isolates were derived; dog (Do), human (Hu), chimpanzee (Ch), lorises (Lo), long-tailed macaques (Lt), pig-tailed macaques (Pt), Japanese macaques (Jm), proboscis monkeys (Pr), silvered leaf monkeys (Sl), orangutans (Or), Rhesus macaques (Rh), St Kitts (white star) vervets (Ve), gorilla (Go), and baboon (Ba). Divergent S. fuelleborni types described by Ko et al. (2023) were also clustered (green circle and branches) from Siamang (Si), Douc (Do), and Francois' langur (Fr) housed in zoological parks in Japan. The black bar and black star indicate S. stercoralis reference strain PV001. Strongyloides stercoralis types A and B, are shown with red and blue branches respectively. The loris clade is shown in light blue. The S. stercoralis and loris clades clustered here for comparison are shaded in a gray background. A version of this same tree with isolate names shown on the branch tips is provided in File S3; Tree A. (For interpretation of the references to color in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the Web version of this article.)
