Extensive genomic divergence among 61 strains of <i>Chlamydia psittaci</i>
2022-11-10
Abstract excerpt
Chlamydia (C.) psittaci , the causative agent of avian chlamydiosis and human psittacosis, is a genetically heterogeneous species. Its broad host range includes parrots and many other birds, but occasionally also humans (via zoonotic transmission), ruminants, horses, swine and rodents. To assess whether there are genetic markers associated with host tropism we comparatively analyzed whole-genome sequences of 61 C...
