Differentiating Host-Associated Variants ofMycobacterium aviumby PCR for Detection of Large Sequence Polymorphisms
1 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
The Mycobacterium avium species consists of a group of organisms that are genetically related but phenotypically diverse, with certain variants presenting clear differences in terms of their host association and disease manifestations. The ability to distinguish between these subtypes is of relevance for accurate diagnosis and for control programs. Using a comparative genomics approach, we have uncovered large...
