Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Bacteroides fragilis is the pathogenic anaerobe most commonly isolated from intra-abdominal infections, abscesses, and blood. Despite its clinical importance, research on its pan-genome-scale evolution is still limited. METHODS: Herein, we analyzed the pan-genome architecture of 374 B. fragilis strains to explore their intra-species genomic diversity and evolutionary patterns. RESULTS: Our...
