Identification and characterization of novel Salmonella mobile elements involved in the dissemination of genes linked to virulence and transmission.

Identification and characterization of novel Salmonella mobile elements involved in the dissemination of genes linked to virulence and transmission.

The genetic diversity represented by >2,500 different Salmonella serovars provides a yet largely uncharacterized reservoir of mobile elements that can contribute to the frequent emergence of new pathogenic strains of this important zoonotic pathogen. Currently, our understanding of Salmonella mob...
