Abstract excerpt
In pastoral parts of China, anthrax still presents a major risk to livestock and threatens the health of local human populations. Currently, whole-genome-based molecular markers, such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs), are the most effective tools for genotyping Bacillus anthracis. In this study, 191 isolates were selected to assess the diversity of B. anthracis...
