Strain-specific differences in Neisseria gonorrhoeae associated with the phase variable gene repertoire
Background: There are several differences associated with the behaviour of the four main experimental Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains, FA1090, FA19, MS11, and F62. Although there is data concerning the gene complements of these strains, the reasons for the behavioural differences are currently unknown...
