Materials and Methods
Bacterial isolates
The 164 seventh pandemic Vibrio cholerae El Tor (7PET) isolates and the 88 non-7PET isolates
were obtained from the collections of Institut Pasteur, Paris, France (n = 122); ANLIS, Buenos
Aires, Argentina (n = 20); and the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City,
Mexico (n = 110). Metadata, such as biotype and serotype, were obtained from the various
providers of strains.
Antimicrobial susceptibility testing
Antimicrobial susceptibilities for selected isolates was assessed at the Universidad Nacional
Autónoma de México by the disk diffusion method and by determination of minimal inhibitory
concentrations (MIC) both according to CLSI (Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute)
guidelines (M23-A3 2008; M02-A11 2012) and using Müller-Hinton (MH) agar plates (BD
Difco, USA). The isolates were categorized as being sensitive, intermediately resistant, or
resistant to each antimicrobial. All the antimicrobial disks were sourced from BD BBL Sensi-
Disc, USA. The following antimicrobial drugs were tested: azithromycin (15 μg),
chloramphenicol (30 μg), ciprofloxacin (5 μg), doxycycline (30 μg), gentamicin (120 μg),
imipenem (10 μg), nalidixic acid (30 μg), tetracycline (30 μg), ticarcillin (75 μg) and
trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (1.25 μg / 23.75 μg / 75 μg). Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC
27853, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, E. coli ATCC 35218, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC
29213 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 were used as controls in the susceptibility tests.

Whole genome sequencing
Whole genome sequencing was performed at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and at Institut
Pasteur using the Illumina HiSeq and MiSeq platforms to generate 75-250 bp paired-end reads.
Short read data are available in the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) database (accession
numbers are provided in Table S1-S2). Short reads were assembled using Spades v3.8.2 (40) and
annotated using Prokka v1.5 (41) Genome completeness estimates and checks for contamination
were performed using CheckM (42).
Additional genomes
We supplemented our analyses of both 7PET and non-7PET datasets with previously published
genomes, listed in Supplementary Tables S1 and S2. For genomes that were only available as
assemblies, we simulated 100 bp paired-end Illumina reads using wgsim v.0.3.2 (-e 0 -r 0 -X 0 -1
100 -2 100) for uniformity in our data analysis pipelines.
Read alignment and detection of SNPs within 7PET
A reference based alignment for the 7PET analysis was obtained by mapping paired-end Illumina
reads for each of the 518 isolates to the Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor reference N16961 (accession
numbers LT907989/LT907990) using SMALT v.0.7.4
(http://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/tools/smalt-0). Variant detection was performed using
samtools mpileup v0.1.19 (43) with parameters “-d 1000 -DSugBf”, and bcftools v0.1.19 (43), to
produce a BCF file of all variant sites. High quality SNPs were determined as previously
described (44). Putative recombinant regions were detected and filtered from the alignment using
4
Gubbins (45) with default parameters, resulting in a final alignment of 5,645 variable (SNP)
sites.
Core gene alignment for non-7PET
A pan-genome was created using the assembled genomes of 148 V. cholerae and three outgroup
sequences (Vibrio metoecus 07_2435; Vibrio metoecus RC341; Vibrio sp. RC586) using Roary
(46) with options “-e --mafft -s -cd 97”. A core gene alignment of 1,006,857 sites was produced
from 2,105 core genes. Poorly aligned and gap-rich sites were filtered from the alignment using
trimAl v1.4.rev15 (47) with the “-automated1” option, resulting in an alignment of 983,205 sites.
SNP-sites v2.3.2 (48) was used to identify the variable sites only, yielding a final alignment of
169,738 SNP sites.
Phylogenetic analysis
Maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic trees were constructed using RAxML v7.8.6 (49) under
the GTR model with the gamma distribution to model site heterogeneity (GTRGAMMA), using
500 bootstrap replicates. The ML analysis for the 7PET (518 isolates) dataset was constructed
using an alignment of 5,645 variable sites with putative recombinant sites removed. ML analysis
for the non-7PET dataset (152 isolates) was performed using the core-gene alignment of 169,738
variable sites. Phylogenetic trees were visualized with ggtree (50) and iTOL (51).
Temporal analysis
The temporal signal within the 7P dataset ML tree was investigated using TempEst v.1.5 (52) by
calculating a linear regression between the root-to-tip distance and the year of isolation for each
5
sample. Randomization of the dates of isolation removed any association between time of
sampling and root-to-tip distance. A time-scaled phylogeny for the 7PET was produced by
applying the LSD algorithm (53), which can scale to a large number of taxa. The genome-wide
mutation rate (6.1 x 10-7 substitutions site-1 year-1) obtained by BEAST (54) from our companion
paper (16) was employed here. LSD version 0.3beta was run with constrained mode (“-c”), using
variances from the estimated branch lengths (“-v 2”), and confidence intervals computed from
1,000 simulated trees (“-f 1000”). The time to most recent common ancestor for all 7P El Tor
was estimated to be 1914.784 (95% CI, 1911.531 - 1917.973). This corresponds well with the
BEAST estimate from Weill et al. (16), which was 1917 (95% CI, 1912 - 1922).
Phylogenetic clustering
The 148 non-7PET V. cholerae isolates were clustered into lineages guided by a hierarchical
Bayesian analysis of population structure (BAPS) (55) and the maximum likelihood phylogeny.
BAPS was run on an alignment of 115,789 phylogenetically informative sites (i.e., private SNPs
were removed) derived from the final core gene alignment with the following parameters: L = 3;
K = 500.
Comparative genomic analyses
The output from Roary (46), BLAST (56) and mapping analyses were used to determine and
characterize the analyzed genomes. Gene families were computed for both 7PET and non-7PET
datasets using Roary. For in silico typing of the 7PET Ogawa/Inaba serotypes, ARIBA (57) was
used to call variants against the wild type Ogawa V. cholerae V06-92 sequence (ENA accession:
AEN80191). Similarly, ARIBA was used to call variants of the ctxB allele against the V.
6
cholerae N16961 El Tor sequence. The presence of genomic features and islands was determined
using a combination of data from BLAST analyses, mapping to V. cholerae reference genomes,
and data from ARIBA.
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) or ARG-containing structures (Fig. S11 and Table S1) were
identified within the 7PET dataset using ResFinder version 2.1
(https://cge.cbs.dtu.dk/services/ResFinder/), by BLAST analysis against GI-15 (58), Tn7
(GenBank accession number CP000038; coordinates, 4098721-4113720) and SXT/R391 ICEs
(59), and by using PlasmidFinder (60) v1.3 (https://cge.cbs.dtu.dk/services/PlasmidFinder/).
ARIBA was used to call variants of the quinolone resistance-determining region of the DNA
gyrase and topoisomerase IV genes, and to determine ARGs for the non-7PET dataset (against
the ResFinder database).
Supplementary Text
Supplementary Note 1: Sampling framework
A total number of 2,049,525 cholera cases were reported by 23 countries within Latin America
and the Caribbean to the WHO between 1991 to 2014. Our dataset for 7th Pandemic El Tor
comprises 15 of these 23 countries, and captures 1,851,451 (90.3%) of those cases reported.
Despite covering over 90% of cases, our sampling is limited within Central America and the
Caribbean (with the exception of Haiti). However, as we can link our genomic data with the
previous ribotyping, PFGE, and electrophoretic typing data, we can extend our coverage which
7
allows for the description of 99.8% of the all cholera cases reported to the WHO between 1991-
2014.
We attempted to represent previously described cholera isolates within Latin America to place
these into a holistic framework in which to understand the relationships between these isolates.
In total, we analyzed 665 Vibrio cholerae isolates, which included 519 7th pandemic El Tor
(7PET) isolates as well as an additional 146 non-7PET strains. We have sequenced 10 of the 19
reference strains originally typed by Popovic et al. (12), which includes all strains from Latin
America from that reference collection. In addition, we sequenced the collection of isolates from
Mexico (11), which were also typed according to the scheme of Popovic et al. (12). Thus, we can
now link the historical typing schemes to whole-genome data (Table S4).
Initial ribotyping and electrophoretic typing studies demonstrated that the Latin American
epidemic was a clonal expansion of ribotype 5 and electrophoretic type 4 (12). Popovic et al.
typed 108 toxigenic isolates from 14 Latin American countries from 1991-1992, of which 104
isolates were ribotype 5 (and ET 4) and four isolates were ribotype 6 (and ET 3). Further
characterization of 352 toxigenic isolates from 13 Latin American countries by Evins et al. (13)
demonstrated that 323 were ribotype 5 and ET 4. Twenty-three isolates from Guatemala and
Mexico were ET 3, ribotype 6a and resistant to furazolidone, sulfisoxazole, and streptomycin
(13). A more detailed study within Guatemala demonstrated that initial isolates from 1991 had
identical PFGE patterns to the Latin American epidemic strain, but by 1993 isolates were
multidrug resistant (furazolidone, sulfisoxazole, streptomycin) and had a PFGE pattern similar to
isolates from Mexico from 1993 (61).
8
We also included previously described Vibrio cholerae O1 “variants” from Latin America. This
included the “Amazonia” variants isolated in the western part of the Brazilian Amazon between
1991 to 1992 (19) and the “Tucumán” variants from Argentina isolated between 1992 to 1998
(18). We also included isolates from previously described cholera in Mexico, which included
Classical biotype isolates (20, 21), El Tor isolates (20, 27), and the Mexican O1 variant ribotypes
Mx1-3 (11). Only those of our samples which had defined provenance were sequenced for
inclusion in our analysis.
A single isolate (F99/W) from Formosa, Argentina sampled from the environment in 1992 was
placed phylogenetically into the 7th Pandemic El Tor (7PET) lineage, clustering among early
wave 1 isolates from Iraq and Iran from the mid 1960s. This isolate is non-toxigenic (lacks
CTXφ) and does not harbor any signatures of the LAT-1 (WASA and VSP-II variant) or LAT-2
(GI-15) sublineages. These data match the description in the thesis that first characterized this
isolate (62). Although this isolate has a curious position within the phylogeny, the phylogenetic
analyses and epidemiological data do not support any relationship between the 1990s epidemic
and this isolate.
Supplementary Note 2: Patterns of disease seen across Latin America
Our sampling of 7PET and non-7PET lineages enables us to describe three overarching patterns
of cholera disease in Latin America. The first is that of very localized disease, whereby local
lineages enter into the human population in sporadic short-term outbreaks, and in which
secondary infections are rare. This pattern is often associated with foodborne infections, and are
9
often localized to coastal regions within known local foci of V. cholerae populations (11). This
disease pattern is exemplified by the MX-3 lineage, which only appeared in 2000 along the
Mexican Gulf Coast (Fig. 1; S4), and by an outbreak by a non-toxigenic serogroup O12 isolate
(strain 1587) seen only in Lima, Peru in 1994 (63) which is unrelated to other Latin American
isolates (Fig. S2).
A second pattern is that of localized lineages causing disease over much longer time-periods and
large geographic areas. This is exemplified by the Gulf Coast, ELA-1, and MX-2 lineages (Fig.
1; S2; S4). While cases associated with the Gulf Coast lineage are seen in the coastal regions of
Mexico and the United States, isolates from this lineage have also been found in Peru and
Argentina (Fig. 1). ELA-1 isolates span a period of 36 years (1978-2014) and are associated with
distinct and disparate geographic areas (Fig. 1; S2; S4). These lineages represent long-term,
stable local foci, and the large geographic spread of several lineages may indicate transport via
human populations. As sampling continues to increase, it seems likely that lineages or isolates
associated with the first pattern of disease may transition into the second.
The third pattern is that of pandemic cholera, which is defined by massive, explosive epidemics
in short periods of time (Fig. S10). Epidemic cholera has been shown to spread in a manner
similar to that of aggressive forest fires (64). There are vast differences in the burden of disease
caused by infection with pandemic lineages versus local lineages.
Epidemic cholera in Latin America appears as explosive events for which the number of cases
falls sharply after introduction events (Fig. S10). The dramatic decrease in cases and the eventual
10
disappearance of both LAT-1 and LAT-2 pandemic sublineages in nearly all Latin American
countries by 2010 (Fig. 2C) suggests that these sublineages did not establish a long-term
environmental reservoir in Latin America. Thus, in contrast to true local lineages, some of which
have been isolated since the 1970s (Gulf Coast), pandemic cholera appears to have a limited
capacity to be maintained in Latin America. The patterns seen across lineages may be due to the
different modes by which local versus pandemic clones move into and through human
populations, i.e., via foodborne mechanisms versus a human-to-human transmission route.

Fig. S4
Geographic distribution of samples for V. cholerae lineages. Each panel shows the location of
isolates; circle size is scaled by the number of isolates from a given location. Only those isolates
were included for which explicit data on their place of origin were available. The name of each
lineage is given in the bottom left corner of each panel.
15
Fig. S5
Serogroup of V. cholerae. The phylogeny is the same as that shown in Figures 1 and S2. The
hash mark denotes a branch that was artificially shortened for visualization purposes. The
serogroup based on the O-antigen is reported. The designation “non-O1” is given to isolates that
were not of the O1 serogroup when tested phenotypically and not defined further.
16
Fig. S6
Presence of genomic islands associated with pathogenicity across the V. cholerae phylogeny.
The phylogeny is the same as that shown in Figures 1 and S2. The hash mark denotes a branch
that was artificially shortened for visualization purposes. The seventh pandemic lineage is
highlighted.

Fig. S7
Presence of the toxin co-regulated pilus (TCP) and ctxB alleles across the V. cholerae phylogeny.
The phylogeny is the same as that shown in Figures 1 and S2. The hash mark denotes a branch
that was artificially shortened for visualization purposes. ctxB variants are denoted.

Fig. S8
Temporal signal within the 518 seventh pandemic V. cholerae El Tor isolates. (A) Regression,
as performed by TempEst (52), of the year of isolation versus root-to-tip divergence derived
from the maximum likelihood tree of the 7PET lineage in Fig S10. (B) Three tip-randomization
experiments over the whole dataset demonstrate the temporal signal is not artefactual.

Fig. S9
Maximum likelihood phylogeny of 518 seventh pandemic V. cholerae El Tor isolates. Scale bar
denotes number of mutations per variable site. Branches in the tree are colored according to the
waves defined by Mutreja et al. (26), where blue is wave 1, red is wave 2, and purple is wave 3.
The geographic origin of the sample is denoted by the first ring. The other rings (2-5) display the
distribution of allele or genomic region variants across the 7PET lineage.
