Genetic organization and phylogeny of the Stx2a prophages identified in O145:H25 and other EHEC strains. a Integration sites are displayed on either sites and genes are colored based on functional characteristics as described in the figure legend. Approximate prophage sizes are indicated in parentheses. Nucleotide sequences were aligned in Geneious 9.1.5 using MAFFT with default settings. b Phylogenetic analysis of the Stx2a prophages. The maximum-likelihood tree was constructed in Geneious 9.1.5 using RAxML and the GTR + GAMMA + Invariable sites model and 500 bootstrap replicates. The scale bar indicates the number of substitutions per base; branch support values 1 representing 100
