Illumina short reads of the environmental B. pseudomallei isolates from this study were submitted to the Sequence Read Archive under the NCBI accession ERR9146399 (IND_S3) an ERR9138530 (IND_S14). Whole genome sequencing data of B. pseudomallei strains were analyzed in SeqSphere (Ridom GmbH, Germany) using our previously published B. pseudomallei core genome MLST (cgMLST) scheme (Lichtenegger et al., 2021 (link)). A UPGMA tree and a minimum spanning tree were constructed based on the allelic profiles of the isolates. Columns with missing values for at least one sample were removed before analysis, resulting in 3635 targets/distance columns. Figures were created and annotated with Ridom SeqSphere.
