Genomic Evolution of Staphylococcus aureus During Artificial and Natural Colonization of the Human Nose
Staphylococcus aureus can colonize the human vestibulum nasi for many years. It is unknown whether and, how S. aureus adapts to this ecological niche during colonization. We determined the short (1 and 3 months) and mid-term (36 months) genomic evolution of S. aureus in natural carriers and artifici...
