Abstract excerpt
All the studies published including Bartonella bacilliformis MLST data, as well as all B. bacilliformis genomes present in GenBank were analyzed. Overall 64 isolates and their geographical distribution were analyzed, and 14 different MLST patterns were observed. The results highlight the need for expanding the MLST studies and adding a higher number of isolates from all endemic areas.
