Bacillus anthracis evolution and epidemiology.

Current topics in microbiology and immunology - 1 Jan 2002

Keim P, Smith K L

Abstract excerpt

Bacillus anthracis is a pathogen that is widely distributed around the globe. However, this great distribution is not accompanied by great genetic diversity. Although subtle morphological and biochemical differences exist, the underlying genetic basis for this plasticity is not known. Indeed, very few single nucleotide differences have been detected among isolates and the only documented high variable sequences...
