Insights to genetic characterization tools for epidemiological tracking of Francisella tularensis in Sweden.
Tularaemia, caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis, is endemic in Sweden and is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of three different genetic typing systems to link a genetic type to the source and place of tularemia infection in Sweden. Canonical sing...
