Genomic Epidemiology and Microevolution of the Zoonotic Pathogen <i>Corynebacterium ulcerans</i>

2024-08-22

Abstract excerpt

Corynebacterium ulcerans is an emerging zoonotic pathogen that belongs to the Corynebacterium diphtheriae (Cd) species complex (CdSC), and that causes diphtheria-like infections in humans. Our understanding of the transmission, phylogeography and evolution of C. ulcerans remains limited, in part due to the lack of a standardized genomic epidemiology toolkit. The aim of this work was to develop a core genome mul...
