Minimum Spanning Tree with MLVA-16 data of the B. melitensis isolated in Azerbaijan. Strains isolated from cattle milk (light grey) compared with B. melitensis strains belonging to the American lineage, including Rev. 1 strains (dark grey). and to a selection of B. melitensis genotypes belonging to the West and East European lineages (MLVA profiles derived from publicly available data (http://mlva.u-psud.fr/) and labelled as in Additional file 1. Clustering by minimum spanning tree was performed with Bionumerics version 6.6 software (Applied Maths, Sint-Maartens Latem, Belgium). Circles outline the genetic profiles of strains. Numbers on the connecting lines refer to the number of markers differing between samples. The size of the circles is proportional to the number of strains (1-4) bearing the same genetic profile
