Phylogenetic trees of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes exhibiting significantly different abundances between the genomes of E. faecium (subclades I or II) and E. lactis. Phylogenetic trees for antibiotic resistance and virulence genes, which were not presented in this figure, can be found in Fig. S6. The trees were constructed using the maximum likelihood algorithm, based on the amino acid sequences. Distinct colors are assigned to E. faecium (subclades I or II) and E. lactis, corresponding to the source of gene sequences, which are displayed on the outer circle. Closely related GenBank sequences used as references are highlighted with a gray background. A tet(M), ribosomal protection protein; B ermB, rRNA adenine N-6-methyltransferase; C aacA-aphD, aminoglycoside acetyltransferase; D satA, streptothricin acetyltransferase; E vanXA, d-Ala-d-Ala dipeptidase; F fss3, collagen binding MSCRAMM; G vanA, d-alanine-(R)-lactate ligase; and (H) esp, surface protein precursor
