Niche segregation and genetic structure of Campylobacter jejuni populations from wild and agricultural host species.

Bacterial populations can display high levels of genetic structuring but the forces that influence this are incompletely understood. Here, by combining modelling approaches with multilocus sequence data for the zoonotic pathogen Campylobacter, we investigated how ecological factors such as niche (ho...
