Within-host microevolution of Streptococcus pneumoniae is rapid and adaptive during natural colonisation

Genomic evolution, transmission and pathogenesis of Streptococcus pneumoniae , an opportunistic human-adapted pathogen, is driven principally by nasopharyngeal carriage. However, little is known about genomic changes during natural colonisation. Here, we use whole-genome sequencing to investigate wi...
