Genomic diversity in Mycobacterium avium: single nucleotide polymorphisms between the S and C strains of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis and with M. a. avium.

Abstract excerpt

Following identification of large genomic polymorphisms in a previous study, a polymerase chain reaction and sequencing strategy was used to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 25 genes in the sheep (S) and cattle (C) strains of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (M. a. paratuberculosis) and between M. a. paratuberculosis and M. a. avium. From 12,117 bp of sequence representing 26 loci...
