^aNot used in MAC typing but presented for comparison and explanation.
^bAny serotype prediction programme can be used though some antigens cannot be distinguished.
^cFigure shows core SNP cluster for each antigenic type.
^dHierarchical Clustering Level at which the serovars can be differentiated genetically.
No. = number of MAC type, % of the 46,268 Salmonella reported.
