A Novel Family of Genomics Islands Across Multiple Species of <i>Streptococcus</i>

2016-07-26

Abstract excerpt

The genus Streptococcus is one of the most genomically diverse and important human and agricultural pathogens. The acquisition of genomic islands (GIs) plays a central role in adaptation to new hosts in the genus pathogens. The research presented here employs a comparative genomics approach to define a novel family of GIs in the genus Streptococcus which also appears across strains of the same species. Specifica...
