Comparative genomic analyses of Streptococcus mutans provide insights into chromosomal shuffling and species-specific content

BACKGROUND: Streptococcus mutans is the major pathogen of dental caries, and it occasionally causes infective endocarditis. While the pathogenicity of this species is distinct from other human pathogenic streptococci, the species-specific evolution of the genus Streptococcus and its genomic diversit...
