Complete genome sequence of Borrelia afzelii K78 and comparative genome analysis.

Complete genome sequence of Borrelia afzelii K78 and comparative genome analysis.

The main Borrelia species causing Lyme borreliosis in Europe and Asia are Borrelia afzelii, B. garinii, B. burgdorferi and B. bavariensis. This is in contrast to the United States, where infections are exclusively caused by B. burgdorferi. Until to date the genome sequences of four B. afzelii strain...
