Strengthening the genomic surveillance of Francisella tularensis by using culture-free whole-genome sequencing from biological samples

IntroductionFrancisella tularensis is a highly infectious bacterium that causes the zoonotic disease tularemia. The development of genotyping methods, especially those based on whole-genome sequencing (WGS), has recently increased the knowledge on the epidemiology of this disease. However, due to th...
