description: The S.pneumoniae array was designed using the TIGR4 strain as a base strain with annotation described in Tettelin et al (2001) Science 293: 498-506. PCR primers were designed and products ampilifed to 2236 target genes. The genes extra to strain R6 where identified from the annotation described in Hoskins et al (2001) J. Bacteriol. 183: 5709-5717. PCR primers were thus designed to 117 R6 target genes and added to the array
