Figure 2

Phylogenetic tree based on whole-genome sequence data of 19 species in the Mycobacterium simiae complex and M. avium 104 from the GenBank database. The tree was constructed by using concatenated alignments of the 1,399 core genes with Roary, the pan genome pipeline (https://sanger-pathogens.github.io/Roary), and displayed by using Dendroscope (https://www.dendroscope.org). Box at the bottom shows an enlarged version of the branch of M. shigaense in the tree. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
