Genomic comparison and phenotypic profiling of small colony variants of Burkholderia pseudomallei.

Genomic comparison and phenotypic profiling of small colony variants of Burkholderia pseudomallei.

Burkholderia pseudomallei (B. pseudomallei) is an intracellular pathogen that causes melioidosis, a life-threatening infection in humans. The bacterium is able to form small colony variants (SCVs) as part of the adaptive features in response to environmental stress. In this study, we characterize th...
