Comparative analysis of Vibrio cholerae isolates from Ghana reveals variations in genome architecture and adaptation of outbreak and environmental strains

Comparative analysis of Vibrio cholerae isolates from Ghana reveals variations in genome architecture and adaptation of outbreak and environmental strains

Recurrent epidemics of cholera denote robust adaptive mechanisms of Vibrio cholerae for ecological shifting and persistence despite variable stress conditions. Tracking the evolution of pathobiological traits requires comparative genomic studies of isolates from endemic areas. Here, we investigated...
