A naturally occurring nucleotide polymorphism in the orf2/folc promoter is associated with Streptococcus suis virulence
BACKGROUND: Streptococcus suis is a major problem in the swine industry causing meningitis, arthritis and pericarditis in piglets. Pathogenesis of S. suis is poorly understood. We previously showed that introduction of a 3 kb genomic fragment from virulent serotype 2 strain 10 into a weakly virulent...
