Evidence for Genotype-Associated Differences in Disease Severity and Limitations of Serotype-Based Classification in Glaesserella parasuis Revealed by Whole-Genome Sequencing in Japan.

Abstract excerpt

We conducted whole-genome sequencing to investigate serotypes, virulence-associated genes, antimicrobial resistance determinants, and genetic relationships among Glaesserella parasuis isolates from diseased pigs in Japan, focusing on underrecognized aspects of disease epidemiology and control. Although Glässer's disease is well recognized in swine production, its epidemiology remains incompletely understood,...
