Pan-Genome-Wide Association Study of Serotype 19A Pneumococci Identifies Disease-Associated Genes
ABSTRACT Despite the widespread implementation of pneumococcal vaccines, hypervirulent Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 19A is endemic worldwide. It is still unclear whether specific genetic elements contribute to complex pathogenicity of serotype 19A isolates. We performed a large-scale pan-genome...
