Abstract
- We investigated population structure among nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae.
- MLST was used to type 170 commensal and disease associated isolates.
- Two frequently isolated sequence types were only associated with disease.
- There was clear evidence for population structure, despite high genetic diversity.
- The populations were not structured by disease or geography.
