Abstract excerpt
Legionella anisa has been frequently isolated from engineered water systems; however, its population structure remains understudied compared to Legionella pneumophila. Here, we generated complete genome sequences for four L. anisa isolates recovered from a healthcare facility in Rimouski, Canada. Further the population structure of this species was investigated by performing comparative genomic analyses of the...
