ASSIGNMENT OF STREPTOCOCCUS AGALACTIAE ISOLATES TO CLONAL COMPLEXES USING A SMALL SET OF SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISMS

Assignment of Streptococcus agalactiae isolates to clonal complexes using a small set of single nucleotide polymorphisms

Abstract Background Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus (GBS)) is an important human pathogen, particularly of newborns.Emerging evidence for a relationship between genotype and virulence has accentuated the need for efficient and well-defined typing methods.The objective of this study was to develop a single nucleotide polymorphism (SN
