Amplicons from the ACME PCR scan for 5 underlined ACME-I.02 variants were used for DNA sequencing and construction of 25-kb contigs. <sup>5</sup>NH, no hybridization with <i>arcCB</i> probe; <i>ClaI</i>-<i>arcCB</i> banding patterns shown in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0007722#pone-0007722-g003" target="_blank">Figure 3</a>; <sup>6</sup>SCC<i>mec</i> typing to identify class A, B, C, and other non-typeable (NT) <i>mec</i> gene complex, and 5 types of <i>ccr</i> gene complex, ccrAB1, ccrAB2, ccrAB3, ccrAB4, ccrC.
