  1. * C1 contains D strains (D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, D9, D11, D12, and D13) and B strains (B1, B2, B3, B4, B6, B8, B10, B14, and B18) with F6 as minorities. C2 is mainly composed of B strains (B5, B7, B9, B11, B15, B16, B17) and D2. C3 consists mostly of F strains (F1a, F1b, F2a, F2b, F3, F4a, F4b, F5, Fx, Fy) and B12. Shigella strains are labelled according to the designations in Table 1.
  2. #The % indicated in parenthesis is relative to MG1655 total ORFs.
