No particular genomic features underpin the dramatic economic consequences of 17th century plague epidemics in Italy

Abstract excerpt

The 17 th century plague epidemic had a particularly strong demographic toll in Southern Europe, especially Italy, where it caused long-lasting economical damage. Whether this resulted from ineffective sanitation measures or more pathogenic Yersinia pestis strains remains unknown.
