Populational genomic insights of Paraclostridium bifermentans as an emerging human pathogen

Abstract excerpt

Paraclostridium bifermentans (P.b) is an emerging human pathogen that is phylogenomically close to Paeniclostridium sordellii (P.s), while their populational genomic features and virulence capacity remain understudied. Here, we performed comparative genomic analyses of P.b and compared their pan-genomic features and virulence coding profiles to those of P.s. Our results revealed that P.b has a more plastic...
