Gene Acquisition by a Distinct Phyletic Group within <named-content content-type="genus-species">Streptococcus pneumoniae</named-content> Promotes Adhesion to the Ocular Epithelium

ABSTRACT Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) displays broad tissue tropism and infects multiple body sites in the human host. However, infections of the conjunctiva are limited to strains within a distinct phyletic group with multilocus sequence types ST448, ST344, ST1186, ST1270, and ST2315. In...
