Phylogenomic Diversity Elucidates Mechanistic Insights into Lyme Borreliae-Host Association

ABSTRACT Host association—the selective adaptation of pathogens to specific host species—evolves through constant interactions between host and pathogens, leaving a lot yet to be discovered on immunological mechanisms and genomic determinants. The causative agents of Lyme disease (LD) are spirochete...
