a

The predicted serotype was considered correct when the serotype antigens detected corresponded to the antigens detected by phenotypic methods.

b

Numbers represent serotype predictions inconsistent with the annotated serotype; the accuracy of the annotated serotype is unknown for GenomeTrakr strains and genome assemblies.

c

Some or all of the expected serotype determinants were not detected.

d

CDC strains (n = 307) and GenomeTrakr strains (n = 3,207) combined.
