Whole genome sequencing of <i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i> isolates reveals linked clusters of plasmid-borne accessory genome elements associated with virulence

2023-02-27

Abstract excerpt

Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in North America and Europe. The clinical manifestations of Lyme disease vary based on the genospecies of the infecting Borrelia burgdorferi spirochete, but the microbial genetic elements underlying these associations are not known. Here, we report the whole genome sequence (WGS) and analysis of 299 patient-derived B. burgdorferi sensu stricto ( Bbss ) isolat...
