SureSelect target capture was used as previously described [12 (link)] on a selection of 95 isolates including selected samples from a previous study on LGV diversity [19 ]. The SureSelect baits were custom designed around known variable regions from all sequenced ompA-genotypes [9 (link)]. Sequence capture (48-plex) was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocols (Agilent). After library preparation [34 (link)], multiplexed (96-plex) samples were sequenced using Illumina Hiseq V4 (Illumina) with 75 bp paired-end reads.
