Oro-Nasal Reservoir for Diabetic Foot Infection (Clusters 1-7). Isolates belonging to the same cluster exhibited an average of 2.9 allelic differences (range 0-11). In contrast, reference genomes downloaded from GenBank selected as representatives of each sequence type identified in the present study exhibited an average of 227 allelic differences from the most closely related isolate within each cluster.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
