Application of MetaMLST to the 1614 urban metagenomes of the MetaSUB dataset. Minimum spanning trees (MST) were generated on the basis of the allelic profile [86], where each node in the MST represents a Sequence Type (ST) and an edge connects similar STs (i.e. sharing at least one identical locus) with a length proportional to their allelic-profiles similarity. The two MSTs were built with PhyloViz [85]. The 139 detected STs of A. baumannii (a) and the 17 STs of E. coli (b) are placed in the tree together with the available known STs for which the species is available. In both trees, the STs of the samples from the New York built environment are colored in red
