Revisiting typing systems for group B Streptococcus (GBS) prophages: an application in prophage detection and classification in GBS isolates from Argentina

Veronica Kovacec, Sabrina Di Gregorio, Mario Pajón, Chiara Crestani, Tomás Poklépovich, Josefina Campos, Uzma Basit Khan, Stephen D. Bentley, Dorota M. Jamrozy, Marta Eugenia Mollerach, Laura Bonofiglio

This paper improves prophage typing for GBS by integrating phylogenetic analysis and integrase typing, identifying 29 prophage types in 615 GBS genomes, including 2 novel integrase subtypes.
