Genetic Classification and Differentiation of <i>Bartonella</i> Species Based on Comparison of Partial <i>ftsZ</i> Gene Sequences
28 Sept 2002
Abstract excerpt
Currently, 19 species are recognized in the genus Bartonella, 7 of which are involved in an increasing variety of human diseases. Development of molecular tools for detection, identification, and subtyping of strains and isolates has promoted research on Bartonella spp. We amplified and sequenced the portion of the ftsZ gene encoding the N-terminal region of the cell division protein for 13 Bartonella species:...
