Multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of viridans group streptococci (VGS) strains causing bacteremia in patients with cancer. The neighbor-joining radial tree was generated by using concatenated sequences. Strains were assigned to a particular VGS on the basis of their proximity to type strains. Locations of well-characterized or type VGS strains (lines without circles) are also shown for reference purposes. Five contemporaneous Streptococcus pneumoniae strains are also included for reference purposes (shown in red). Numbers indicate bootstrap support values (%).Scale bar indicates genetic distance. Background colors indicate VGS species group, using the system from Sinner et al. (29).
