Microbial genome-wide association studies: lessons from human GWAS.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Jan 2017

Power Robert A, Parkhill Julian, de Oliveira Tulio

Abstract excerpt

The reduced costs of sequencing have led to whole-genome sequences for a large number of microorganisms, enabling the application of microbial genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Given the successes of human GWAS in understanding disease aetiology and identifying potential drug targets, microbial GWAS are likely to further advance our understanding of infectious diseases. These advances include insights into...
