a

The amino acid numbering system employed starts at the first methionine and includes the whole open reading frame.

b

NT, not tested. Isolates with a stop codon at Q113 did not produce alpha-toxin and were not tested in the toxin neutralization assay.

c

Of the 200 isolates, 197 had a detectable hla gene.
