  1. SPI-6 distinguishes between S. Derby and S. Mbandaka strains. This island has also been extensively studied for a role in pathogenicity, and displays the largest amount of diversity in gene complement between S. Derby and S. Mbandaka. Interestingly the majority of the diversity in SPI gene complement between S. Derby and S. Mbandaka is additional genes in S. Derby isolates. NI signifies a lack of information on the ORF.
