Venn diagram of a whole-genome MLST comparison (loci, 1,887) showing shared alleles for N. meningitidis (M46.3 and M45.2) and N. lactamica (M45.1 and M46.2) isolates from nasopharyngeal carriage in two individuals. Cocolonizing isolates M45.1 and M45.2 shared 34 alleles while cocolonizing isolates M46.3 and M46.2 shared 61 alleles.
