Abstract excerpt
Coxiella burnetii is classified within the gamma subgroup of the Proteobacteria. All strains tested to date have an identical 16S rRNA sequence but 20 different genotypes have been determined by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). In this study, intraspecies genetic diversity was investigated by sequence comparison of 715 bp of the Com1 encoding gene (com1) and 774 bp of the MucZ encoding gene (mucZ) in 37...
