Abstract excerpt
Melioidosis, a disease caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, is endemic in southeast Asia and northern Australia. We used suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) to identify sequences that varied between two B. pseudomallei isolates from Australia and determined the distribution of 45 SSH-derived sequences among a panel of B. pseudomallei and B. thailandensis isolates. Sequences exhibiting...
