Supernetwork constructed from in silico data of six typing methods. The supernetwork created from the combination of each maximum parsimony tree from the following typing methods: Stx-phage insertion site typing, MLVA, CGF, SNP genotyping, mCGH, and GISSH-based novel region distribution typing. Maximum parsimony trees were combined using the un-weighted mean distance and Z-closure with 1000 iterations; the resulting supernetwork was displayed using the equal angle method.
