Genetic diversity of Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica in Kazakhstan.

Genetic diversity of Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica in Kazakhstan.

Tularemia is a highly dangerous zoonotic infection due to the bacteria Francisella tularensis. Low genetic diversity promoted the use of polymorphic tandem repeats (MLVA) as first-line assay for genetic description. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is becoming increasingly accessible, opening the persp...
