Fig. 1From: Identification and phylogenetic analysis of Enterococcus isolates using MALDI-TOF MS and VITEK 2Comparison of phylogenetic trees obtained from MALDI-TOF MS spectra (left) and VITEK 2 biochemical patterns (right). Species were interpreted using the results from 16S rRNA sequencing. The arrows indicate the same colony or isolate used for both identification instrument. The species names illustrated are from 16S rRNA sequencing. Therefore, the species names species names with asterisk (*) from 16S rRNA sequencing indicates misidentified isolates by MALDI-TOF MS or VITEK 2Back to article page
