Microevolution during an Anthrax Outbreak Leading to Clonal Heterogeneity and Penicillin Resistance

Anthrax is a bacterial disease primarily affecting grazing animals but it can also cause severe disease in humans. We have used genomic epidemiology to study microevolution of the bacterium in a confined outbreak in cattle which involved emergence of an antibiotic-resistant phenotype. At the time of...
