Genetic Diversity of Tick-Borne Rickettsial Pathogens; Insights Gained from Distant Strains

Genetic Diversity of Tick-Borne Rickettsial Pathogens; Insights Gained from Distant Strains

The ability to capture genetic variation with unprecedented resolution improves our understanding of bacterial populations and their ability to cause disease. The goal of the pathogenomics era is to define genetic diversity that results in disease. Despite the economic losses caused by vector-borne...
