Tularemia is a zoonosis of humans caused by infection with the facultative intracellular
bacterium Francisella tularensis. Interest in F. tularensis has increased markedly in the past …

Genomic hybridization on whole genome arrays detects the presence or absence of similar
DNA regions in sufficiently related microorganisms, allowing genome-wide comparison of …

Background Francisella tularensis is a zoonotic intracellular bacterial pathogen that causes
tularemia. The subspecies tularensis is highly virulent and is classified as a category A …

Francisella tularensis is the bacterial pathogen that causes tularemia in humans and a
