Whole-Genome Sequencing for Tracing the Genetic Diversity of <em>Brucella abortus</em> and <em>Brucella melitensis</em> Isolated from Livestock in Egypt

Whole-Genome Sequencing for Tracing the Genetic Diversity of <em>Brucella abortus</em> and <em>Brucella melitensis</em> Isolated from Livestock in Egypt

Brucellosis is a highly contagious zoonosis that occurs worldwide. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has become a widely accepted molecular typing method for outbreak tracing and genomic epidemiology of brucellosis. Twenty-nine <i>Brucella</i> spp. (eight <i>B. abortus</i> biovar...
