Number of phylogroups occurring in individuals. by Rasel Barua (768634)

“…An example of each strain per individual then underwent PCR for phylogrouping, and specific phylogrouped strains were further screened to determine whether they belonged to one of four common human-associated sequence types (ST69, ST73, ST95, and ST131), and to identify B2-subtypes. We detected on average 2.5 unique strains per individual. …”
