Table 1 The number of genomes in each database after filtering by SNP distance. The distance was calculated by summing the number of unique SNPs between genomes. ^aIn order to have a smaller database to benchmark against slower/more memory intensive tools, the number of genomes in d10small was restricted to be 200. The 200 genomes were randomly selected relative to the overall distribution of lineages, with a minimum requirement of five genomes for each lineage. D10 was selected as source set for the small benchmarking set to ensure the broadest possible strain and distance representation
