Phylogenetically distinct Staphylococcus aureus lineage prevalent among Indigenous communities in northern Australia

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The aim was to determine the evolutionary position of the Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex 75 (CC75) that is prevalent in tropical northern Australia. Sequencing of gap, rpoB, sodA, tuf, and hsp60 and the multilocus sequence typing loci revealed a clear separation between conventional S. aureus and CC75 and significant diversity within CC75.
