Dendrogramme to demonstrate potential transfer from mother to baby – Klebsiella isolates. Numbers along the axis indicate the percentage similarity in Dice index. Isolates demonstrating similarity > 75%: 1b-1c, 72b-72c, 74b-74c, 82b-82c, 113b-113c, 139b-139c, 142a-142b-142c, 173b-173c. a: pre-delivery low vaginal swab, b: post-delivery low vaginal swab, c: peri-rectal swab from the baby. The number denotes the study number allocated to a given mother-baby pair. *We could not compare all Klebsiella isolates in a single gel due to inconsistencies of the marker used. Therefore, the three gels used were analysed separately as (a,b and c). However, isolates from a single mother-neonate pair were in the same gel
