Genetic diversity and spatial distribution of Burkholderia mallei by core genome-based multilocus sequence typing analysis.
Burkholderia mallei is the etiological agent of glanders, a highly contagious and often fatal disease in equids. Due to the high genetic clonality of B. mallei, high-resolution typing assays are necessary to differentiate between individual strains. Here we report on the development and validation o...
