UPGMA dendrogram of AFLP fingerprint analysis and an AFLP-derived minimum spanning tree of C. auris isolates from the UK (n = 15) compared to those from India (n = 22), Japan (n = 1), South Africa (n = 4), South Korea (n = 2), and Venezuela (n = 19). Isolates from the closely related sibling species C. haemulonii (n = 11), C. duobushaemulonii (n = 12) and C. pseudohaemulonii (n = 3) were included to serve as an outgroup. Cluster analysis showed that all species form distinct clusters based on the AFLP fingerprint profiles, demarcated by the black dendrogram lines or in the minimum spanning tree where branch lengths indicates the similarity between isolates with thick solid lines (up to 14.96), thin solid line (up to 29.25), thick dashed lines (up to 43.54), thin dashed lines (up to 57.83) and thin dotted lines (above 57.83).
