Comparative Genomic Analyses of theMoraxella catarrhalisSerosensitive and Seroresistant Lineages Demonstrate Their Independent Evolution
24 Feb 2016
Abstract excerpt
The bacterial speciesMoraxella catarrhalishas been hypothesized as being composed of two distinct lineages (referred to as the seroresistant [SR] and serosensitive [SS]) with separate evolutionary histories based on several molecular typing methods, whereas 16S ribotyping has suggested an additional split within the SS lineage. Previously, we characterized whole-genome sequences of 12 SR-lineage isolates, which...
