A global Corynebacterium diphtheriae genomic framework sheds light on current diphtheria reemergence

Background: Diphtheria, caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, reemerges in Europe since 2022. Genomic sequencing can inform on transmission routes and genotypes of concern, but currently, no standard approach exists to detect clinically important genomic features and to interpret emergence in the g...
