Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (<i>S. equi</i>) is a host-restricted pathogen of horses and the aetiological agent of strangles. Available evidence suggests that <i>S. equi</i> evolved from <i>Streptococcus equi</i> subspecies <i>zooepidemicus</i> (<i>S. zooepidemicus</i>), a versatile bacterium that is often isolated from the equine respiratory tract, but can cause opportunistic disease in horses and other an...
