Clostridium botulinum group III: a group with dual identity shaped by plasmids, phages and mobile elements

12 Apr 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Clostridium botulinum strains can be divided into four physiological groups that are sufficiently diverged to be considered as separate species. Here we present the first complete genome of a C. botulinum strain from physiological group III, causing animal botulism. We also compare the sequence to three new draft genomes from the same physiological group. RESULTS: The 2.77 Mb chromosome was highly...
