Partial sequences of the recN gene (1249 bp), which encodes a recombination and repair
protein, were analysed to determine the phylogenetic relationship and identification of …

Abstract Background The Streptococcus Anginosus Group (SAG) represents three closely
related species of the viridans group streptococci recognized as commensal bacteria of the …

Summary The genus Streptococcus emcompasses Gram‐positive, catalase‐negative,
facultatively aerobic and homofermentative cocci which produce l (+)‐lactic acid as major …

Alternative phylogenies for the genus Streptococcus have been proposed due to uncertainty
about the among-species group relationships. Here, we performed a phylogenetic analysis …

Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a major human pathogen. The main
