TABLE 3.
Numbers in parentheses are percentages of strains among each ribotype.
Numbers in parentheses are percentages of strains among each clinical collection.
The number of the ribotype corresponds to the ribotyping patterns described previously (6).
One strain of this collection belonged to group D.
By the Fisher test, P was <0.05 in a comparison with values for meningitis and colonization isolates.
By the Fisher test, P was <0.05 in a comparison with values for UTI and colonization isolates.
One isolate of ribotype IX harbored two PAI IIJ96-like domains inserted in pheU and leuX.
By the Fisher test, P was <0.05 in a comparison with values for the other ribotypes.
By the Fisher test, P was <0.05 in a comparison with values for meningitis and UTI isolates.
