From: Effectiveness of the standard and an alternative set of Streptococcus pneumoniae multi locus sequence typing primers

Figure 1

S. pneumoniae MLST typing regions for each of the segments not fully sequenced by the standard primers aligned with a section of the corresponding genomic DNA. Panels (A) through (F) identify each individual gene and direction combination, for which the complete typing region is not obtained. The black arrows depict the binding sites of the standard primers to the up or downstream genomic DNA. The line marked boxes identify the segment that is consistently not obtained by sequencing with the standard primers. The angle bracket and top sequence identify either the 5’ or 3’ end of the typing region depending on the specific MLST gene.
