  1. aNumbers were rounded to one decimal position. Therefore, the total percentage may not add up to be exactly 100% (may become 100.1% or 99.9%)
  2. bnumbers shown in bracket in this variable indicated the row percentage of number of strains in each cluster and non-clustered strains to the total number of combined Indonesian and Dutch strains;
  3. cdata for this variable were described in column percentage;
  4. da cluster was defined as a group of five strains or more which had a difference in at most one variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) locus, assigned capital letters (A-I);
  5. ea non-clustered strain was defined as a strain which was not grouped in a cluster;
  6. fa grouping based on Neisseria gonorrhoeae Multiantigen Sequence Typing (see Material and Methods section);
  7. ggenogroups consisting of <5 strains.
  8. hNG-MAST data were not available in the database
