High conservation combined with high plasticity: genomics and evolution of Borrelia bavariensis

2020-08-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Borrelia bavariensis is one of the agents of Lyme Borreliosis (or Lyme disease) in Eurasia. The genome of the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato species complex, that includes B. bavariensis , is known to be very complex and fragmented making the assembly of whole genomes with next-generation sequencing data a challenge. Results We present a genome reconstruction for 33 B. ba...
