Editing Streptococcus (section)

====Group G streptococci====
These streptococci are usually, but not exclusively, beta-hemolytic. ''[[Streptococcus dysgalactiae]] subsp. canis''<ref name="Haslam_2023" /> is the predominant subspecies encountered. It is a particularly common GGS in humans, although it is typically found on animals. ''S. phocae'' is a GGS subspecies that has been found in marine mammals and marine fish species. In marine mammals it has been mainly associated with [[meningoencephalitis]], [[sepsis]], and [[endocarditis]], but is also associated with many other pathologies. Its environmental reservoir and means of transmission in marine mammals is not well characterized. Group G streptococci are also considered zoonotic pathogens.
