Clonal population structure of Legionella pneumophila inferred from allelic profiling.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Mar 2008

Edwards Martin T, Fry Norman K, Harrison Timothy G

Abstract excerpt

The population structure of Legionella pneumophila was investigated by analysing nucleotide sequences from six loci (flaA, pilE, asd, mip, mompS and proA) of 335 globally distributed isolates from clinical and environmental sources over a 29-year period (1977-2006). Data were obtained from unrelated isolates from Europe (n=270), Japan (n=31), Canada (n=7), the USA (n=24) and Australia (n=1). The country of origin...
