From: Genetic diversity of livestock-associated MRSA isolates obtained from piglets from farrowing until slaughter age on four farrow-to-finish farms

Figure 7

Distribution of the MLVA clusters, observed on the four farms, at each time point after farrowing. The cluster designation is shown in the bar. The non-dominant clusters and non-clustered MLVA types are given in the purple bar without indication. On farm A, no isolates were obtained within the hour and 17 days after farrowing, whereas on farm B 23 days after farrowing. The piglets of farm C were transported to the second site after a short stay in the growing unit of site 1. The animals received a promycin and amoxicillin treatment in both growing units. The pigs of farm D were moved from one finishing unit to another after a few weeks (h: hour, d: days, NU: nursing unit, GU: growing unit, FU: finishing unit).
