bOf the 304 pneumococcal genomes available in databases, those analyzed were the ones in which both the plREPs that flank lytA and plyA were located in the same contig.
cThe nonencapsulated R6 strain is not taken into account here.
dNot including nine strains showing seven new and two unknown STs.
eThe total number of strains belonging to PMEN clones, including SLVs and DLVs, are shown in parentheses.
fThe lytA30-Spn allele was not translated into its protein since it may contain a sequencing error.
