Dense genomic sampling identifies highways of pneumococcal recombination
Evasion of clinical interventions by Streptococcus pneumoniae occurs through selection of non-susceptible genomic variants. We report whole-genome sequencing of 3,085 pneumococcal carriage isolates from a 2.4-km 2 refugee camp. This sequencing provides unprecedented resolution of the process of reco...
