From: Sequence, distribution and chromosomal context of class I and class II pilin genes of Neisseria meningitidis identified in whole genome sequences

Figure 1

Distribution of class II pilE nucleotide alleles among clonal complexes. A total of 15 different alleles were identified from 77 meningococcal isolates. Isolates from cc1 displayed the most diversity, with five unique pilE sequences found in 14 isolates. All 13 cc5 strains had identical pilE sequence. Alleles 14 and 15 were found in isolates from 2 or 3 different clonal complexes respectively. Clonal complex and pilE alleles are indicated.
