Evolutionary Genetics of Borrelia.

Current issues in molecular biology - 1 Jan 2021

Oppler Zachary J, O'Keeffe Kayleigh R, McCoy Karen D, Brisson Dustin

Abstract excerpt

The genus Borrelia consists of evolutionarily and genetically diverse bacterial species that cause a variety of diseases in humans and domestic animals. These vector-borne spirochetes can be classified into two major evolutionary groups, the Lyme borreliosis clade and the relapsing fever clade, both of which have complex transmission cycles during which they interact with multiple host species and arthropod...
