Genomic and phenotypic characterization of a Clostridioides difficile strain of the epidemic ST37 type from China

Clostridioides difficile strains of sequence type (ST) 37, primarily including PCR ribotype (RT) 017, are prevalent in mainland China. Our study aimed to compare the major virulence factors of an epidemic C. difficile isolate of ST37 type (Xy06) from China with the well-characterized C. difficile re...
