Population genomics of Group B Streptococcus reveals the genetics of neonatal disease onset and meningeal invasion
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) causes neonatal disease and mortality worldwide. Here, the authors use genome-wide association analyses to identify bacterial genetic signatures associated with disease onset time and meningeal tissue infection in acute invasive neonatal GBS disease.
