Selection, recombination, and virulence gene diversity among group B streptococcal genotypes.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 2009

Abstract excerpt

Transmission of group B Streptococcus (GBS) from mothers to neonates during childbirth is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis. Although subtyping tools have identified specific GBS phylogenetic lineages that are important in neonatal disease, little is known about the genetic diversity of these lineages or the roles that recombination and selection play in the generation of emergent genotypes. Here,...
