Analysis of multiple Brachyspira hyodysenteriae genomes confirms that the species is relatively conserved but has potentially important strain variation

Analysis of multiple Brachyspira hyodysenteriae genomes confirms that the species is relatively conserved but has potentially important strain variation

The intestinal spirochete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae is an important pathogen in swine, causing mucohemorrhagic colitis in a disease known as swine dysentery. Based on the detection of significant linkage disequilibrium in multilocus sequence data, the species is considered to be clonal. An analysis...
