Population genetics of Streptococcus pneumoniae : the response to antibiotic and vaccine pressure

2011-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a pathogen and a commensal of the upper respiratory tract, which is a leading cause of child mortality. The development of a successful vaccine against pneumococcal carriage and disease and the ongoing challenge of antimicrobial resistant strains mean that there is an imperative to understand how the pneumococcal population responds to vaccine and antibiotic pressure. Str...
