Complex population structure of Borrelia burgdorferi in southeastern and south central Canada as revealed by phylogeographic analysis.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Feb 2015

Abstract excerpt

Lyme disease, caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, is an emerging zoonotic disease in Canada and is vectored by the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis. Here we used Bayesian analyses of sequence types (STs), determined by multilocus sequence typing (MLST), to investigate the phylogeography of B. burgdorferi populations in southern Canada and the United States by analyzing MLST data from...
