Figure 6. Presence of ECC genes in genomes of nasopharyngeal isolates.

Figure 6

All STs representative of unencapsulated strains (pink highlight), and the most prevalent encapsulated strains (blue highlight), from two recent large scale surveys of asymptomatic nasopharyngeal carriage19,41, compared to ECC members associated with conjunctivitis (red text and line extension), shown in a PhyML SNP-based tree based on the concatenated alignments of MLST alleles. Bootstrapping was performed with 1000 iterations. Prevalence in conjunctivitis (this study) and nasopharyngeal carriage41 is shown. Percent presence and sequence identity of gene (gene, cluster number) or cluster (predicted function, cluster number) is denoted with green boxes.
