The S. suis serotype 2 (S2) and serotype 9 (S9) AgI/II are involved in adhesion to fluid phase porcine salivary agglutinins (pSAGs), but only for S9 with surface-immobilized pSAGs. Evaluation of the fluid phase aggregation of S2 (A) and S9 (B) strains to pSAGs or to surface-immobilized gp340-derived peptide SRCRP2 by S2 (C) and S9 (D), the latter being measured by ELISA. Data represent the mean ± SEM from at least three independent experiments. *(p < 0.05) and **(p < 0.01) indicate a significant difference between the S. suis S2 or S9 wild-type or complemented strain (S2CΔagI/II or S9CΔagI/II) and the agI/II-deficient mutants (S2ΔagI/II or S9ΔagI/II).
