Phylogeny, recombination, and invasiveness of group B Streptococcus revealed by genomic comparisons of its global strains

Capsular polysaccharide (CPS) genes and pilus islands encode important virulence factors for group B Streptococcus (GBS) genomes. This study aims to detect phylogenetic inconsistency in CPS genes and pilus islands in GBSs and to explore its relationship with invasiveness. A total of 1016 GBS genomes...
