Virulence and molecular epidemiological analysis of three human blood-borne Streptococcus suis
The first isolation of <i>ST25 Streptococcus suis</i> in Rui'an was presumed to have a close affinity with the endemic strain in North America. The other strain was an <i>ST7</i> clone, consistent with the endemic strain in Sichuan, and which may have originated from Sichuan. Virulence genotype analysis demonstrated that different virulence genes of the pathogens resulted in different clinical manifestations.
