HierCC equivalents¶
Salmonella database¶
- HC900 & HC2000: HC900 is equivalent to eBG (eBurstGroup) in legacy 7-gene MLST, which is shown to be natural population that is consistent with serovars. Thus we have given HC900 a trivial name as “ceBG” (cgMLST eBurstGroup). We also exploited a further clustering of cgSTs at HC2000 level. salmonellae of different eBG groups (serovars) grouped together at this level.

- HC2850: HC2850 in Salmonella corresponds to the separation of subspecies and species in the genus.

Escherichia database¶
- HC2350: HC2350 in Escherichia corresponds to the separation of species and clades in Escherichia genus.

Streptococcus database¶
- HC363 and HC348: HC363 and HC348 in Streptococcus corresponds to the separation of species in the genus.

Vibrio database¶
- HC1090: HC1090 in Vibrio corresponds to the separation of species in the genus.
Yersinia database¶
- HC1490 & HC1520: HC1520 in Yersinia corresponds to the separation of species and the Species Complexes defined in Reuter et al. PNAS, and HC1490 represents subspecies.

Clostridioides database¶
- HC2500 & HC2000: HC2500 & HC2000 corresponds to the separation of major clades in Clostridioides.
- HC150: HC150 corresponds to the separation of C. difficile ribotypes.
- HC10: HC10 corresponds to the separation of C. difficile global epidemic clones.
