Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a globally prevalent gastric pathogen whose genetic diversity and virulence contribute to the varied clinical outcomes. Whole-genome sequencing has revolutionized microbial genomics by allowing high-resolution analyses to obtain insights into the evolution of pathogenic organisms; however, few studies have specifically focused on strains from Korea, where H. pylori...
