Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The complete genome sequences of 44 Bacillus cereus group isolates collected from diverse sources in Japan were analyzed to determine their genetic backgrounds and diversity levels in Japan. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and core-genome single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) typing data from whole-genome sequences were analyzed to determine genetic diversity levels. Virulence-associated gene...
