Phylogenetic diversity of Salmonella Montevideo based on a GARLI analysis of 72,063 variable SNP sites of which 63,987 were identified as parsimony informative. The tree was rooted with four outgroups including S. Schwarzengrund, S. Pomona, and S. Javiana. Terminal names correspond to samples in Table 1. The numbers at the base of each node are bootstrap scores with most of the deepest nodes supported at 100%. The scale bar units are nucleotide substitutions per site and these are proportional across the branch lengths with longer branches having greater substitutions. S. Montevideo strains partitioned into four clades designated I-IV.
