Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity and relationships among 42 strains of Citrobacter diversus recovered from the cerebrospinal fluid of human infants with meningitis and from other clinical sources in the United States were estimated on the basis of electrophoretically detectable allelic variation in 20 genes enc...
