Phylogenomic analyses of 250 representative taxa of the E. hormaechei complex. A Core genome ML phylogeny constructed on the basis of 3,308 SCOs. The curated alignment comprised 980,799 amino acid positions, with 56,435 parsimony informative sites and 29,084 singleton sites. The tree was constructed using IQ-Tree v. 2.3.6 [13] with the optimal evolutionary model JTT + F + I + G4 and ultra-fast bootstrap support [14] with 1,000 replicates (percentage values are shown). B NJ tree of ANI distance values calculated for the 250 representative E. hormaechei taxa. C NJ tree on the basis of dDDH [15] distance values (D) NJ tree on the basis of TETRA [16] distance values. The genome of the type strain E. quasihormaechei WCHEQ120003T was used as outgroup in all trees. The insets show the average intra- and inter-(sub)specific ANI (B), dDDH (C) and TETRA (D) values, respectively. Values above the respective specific boundary cut-off values of 95–96% (ANI), 70% (dDDH) and 0.99 (TETRA) are shaded in blue according to scale of magnitude
