a, Number of isolates in each DCC from patients with CF and without (non-CF). b, Number and proportion of patients infected with DCCs and non-DCC strains showing genetic links at various SNP cut-offs (y axis). c, Number and proportion of linkages of different geographical distances at various SNP cut-offs, and those that are between and within patients with and without CF. d, Network diagrams at 10 and 38 SNP cut-offs showing transmission clusters coloured by patients with and without CF. e, Detail of the largest cluster in the 38-SNP network showing the geographical location of patients and the network diagram coloured by geographical location. Nodes with black and grey outlines indicate city- and country-level information about isolate location, respectively.
