Genomic insights into the population structure and virulence of Kingella kingae: Infection of Kingella kingae in young children may result in a variety of clinical outcomes including skeletal infections, bacteremia and endocarditis. However, the factor determining the type and severity of the desease are not known. We used a comperative genomic approach in order to find genetic factors distigushing isolates taken from patients with different clinical outcomes, as well as asymptomatic carriers.
