The paper identifies invasion-associated genetic variants in pneumococcal lineages by separating serotype and lineage effects, highlighting candidate determinants for experimental investigation.

This study characterizes the global population structure and genetic diversity of serotype 12F Streptococcus pneumoniae, identifying strand-slippage mutations as a mechanism for capsule variation and vaccine evasion.

This study implements a Nanopore sequencing workflow for P. falciparum genomic surveillance in Ghana, identifying drug resistance patterns and vaccine antigen variations.
