Figure 1 SmaI type distribution and dendrogram of relatedness of epidemic MRSA strains from four European countries. International epidemic MRSA clones which appear to be disseminated in ≥ 2 countries are indicated within a frame. The letter code for each country is: B (Belgium), F (France), G (Germany) and N (The Netherlands).
