Additional File 1:
Alignment of hypervariable region clones from overlapping PCR fragments used to determine the sequences for each specimen analyzed. The consensus sequence of OMModCl was used as a reference. Dots indicate identity to the consensus sequence. Differences are indicated. Base pair sequences that could not be determined for a given clone are marked "N". Gaps are indicated by "-". The first clone provides the name of each sample according to the labels provided in table 1. The numbers indicate PCR replication + clone number: thus 1.1 indicates PCR 1, first clone sequence.
