Concordance rates between clinical and 16S rRNA based identification.

16S based genus and species identities were through the use of the Naïve Bayes classifier and an alignment based approach (16SpathDB). For each clinical identity, in addition to the concordance rates, the number of concordant isolates among all isolates is listed in parentheses. For the latter method, the last two columns give the number of isolates with definite identification among the concordant isolates
* For species level comparisons, species for the clinical identifications Enterobacter cloacae complex and Streptococcus viridans group clinical were:
Enterobacter cloacae complex species: Enterobacter asburiae, Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter hormaechei, Enterobacter kobei, Enterobacter ludwigii, Enterobacter nimipressuralis. Streptococcus viridans group species: (1) S. mitis group: S. mitis, S. sanguinis, S. parasanguinis, S. gordonii, S. oralis, S. cristatus, S. infantis, S. peroris, S. australis, S. oligofermentans, S. pneumoniae, S. pseudopneumoniae (2) S. mutans group: S. mutans, S. sobrinus (3) S. salivarius group: S. salivarius, S. vestibularis, S. thermophiles (4) S. bovis group: S. equinus, S. gallolyticus, S. infantarius, S. pasteurianus, and S. alactolyticus (5) S. anginosus group: S. anginosus, S. constellatus, S. intermedius.
