Evidence for clonal evolution among highly polymorphic genes in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jan 2006

Kuhn G, Francioli P, Blanc D S

Abstract excerpt

The evolution of Staphylococcus aureus has been described as predominantly clonal, based on evidence from seven housekeeping genes. We aimed to test if this was also true for more polymorphic genes. In a collection of 60 isolates including major European epidemic methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and sporadic MRSA strains, we compared the partial gene sequences of seven housekeeping genes (arcC, aroE, glpF,...
