BurkHostGEN: a study protocol for evaluating variations in the Burkholderia pseudomallei and host genomes associated with melioidosis infection

2023-11-02

Abstract excerpt

Background Melioidosis is a frequently fatal disease caused by an environmental bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei . The disease is prevalent in northeast Thailand, particularly among rice field farmers who are at risk of bacterial exposure through contact with contaminated soil and water. However, not all exposure results in disease, and infection can manifest diverse outcomes. We postulate that genetic factors...
