4. FIG. 3
Dendrogram of similarity obtained with Dice coefficients and arithmetic averages (UPGMA) clustering method using BIONUMERICS software (version 3.5) showing the relatedness of pulsed field gel electrophoresis patterns for representative Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains fully susceptible or resistant to cefixime. The profiles are classified into two major clusters (A and B). Isolates that produced patterns that were <85% similar (see scale in the upper left corner) were considered different. The isolate numbers, MICs and sequence types are indicated and referred to in Table 2.
