The genetic relationships between Sendai and Paratyphi A. a The neighbour-joining tree based on the genetic distance which is defined as 100% minus ANI. b The neighbour-joining tree based on the gene content matrix. The right heatmap shows the presence/absence of known host-related virulence factors in these serovars. Black, presence; white, absence; grey, pseudogene. c CRISPR spacers in Paratyphi A and Sendai. The Salmonella genome contains two CRISPR loci. DR represents the conserved direct repeats of the two CRISPR loci, which are 29 bp long and possess the consensus sequence, 5′-CGGTTTATCCCCGCTGGCGCGGGGAACAC-3′. Spacers of the same colour indicate identical sequences. Paratyphi A strain ATCC 11511, AKU_12601 and FDAARGOS_368 share the same CRISPR loci. Paratyphi A strain CMCC 50503 lacks Locus 1 and has the identical Locus 2 as the above three Paratyphi A strains. Paratyphi A strain ATCC 9150 lacks Locus 2 and its Locus 1 lacks two internal spacers as compared with the other Paratyphi A strains. Sendai lacks Locus 1; its Locus 2 shares one spacer with Paratyphi A (in light blue) but the other spacers were different. SPA: S. Paratyphi A
