pathogenicity
Six pathogenicity-related modules were discovered and analyzed, including novel modules.

In silico analysis was also used to predict the effect and pathogenicity of the variant.

Different virulence factors produced by the organism contribute to its pathogenicity, individually.

The results also revealed a potential association between pathogenicity and inositol fermentation.
