Abstract excerpt
Targeted gene disruption by homologous recombination, has been widely used in mycobacterium species to understand the genetic basis of virulence and persistence in the host and to develop efficacious potential live vaccines. However, in slow growing pathogenic mycobacteria as Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis (MAP), these methods have been inefficient, in part due to the low frequency of legitimate...
