Comparative analyses of Legionella species identifies genetic features of strains causing Legionnaires’ disease
BACKGROUND: The genus Legionella comprises over 60 species. However, L. pneumophila and L. longbeachae alone cause over 95% of Legionnaires’ disease. To identify the genetic bases underlying the different capacities to cause disease we sequenced and compared the genomes of L. micdadei, L. hackeliae...
