Progressive genomic convergence of two Helicobacter pylori strains during mixed infection of a patient with chronic gastritis
9 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the detailed nature of genomic microevolution during mixed infection with multiple Helicobacter pylori strains in an individual. DESIGN: We sampled 18 isolates from a single biopsy from a patient with chronic gastritis and nephritis. Whole-genome sequencing was applied to these isolates, and statistical genetic tools were used to investigate their evolutionary history. RESULTS: The genomes...
