Polyploidy, regular patterning of genome copies, and unusual control of DNA partitioning in the Lyme disease spirochete
Borrelia burgdorferi, the tick-transmitted spirochete agent of Lyme disease, has a highly segmented genome with a linear chromosome and various linear or circular plasmids. Here, by imaging several chromosomal loci and 16 distinct plasmids, we show that B. burgdorferi is polyploid during growth in c...
