Phylogenetic tree of strains of C. maltaromaticum based on core genome alignment, utilizing the GTR + I + G4 model with 1000 bootstrap replicates. The tree was rooted with the outgroup, C. divergens DSM20263. Strains are color coded based on sampling time or type strain (clades) and 16 sampling sites (color legend). The type strain C. maltaromaticum DSM 20342 was utilized for tree visualization
