A genomic survey of positive selection in Burkholderia pseudomallei provides insights into the evolution of accidental virulence.

A genomic survey of positive selection in Burkholderia pseudomallei provides insights into the evolution of accidental virulence.

Certain environmental microorganisms can cause severe human infections, even in the absence of an obvious requirement for transition through an animal host for replication ("accidental virulence"). To understand this process, we compared eleven isolate genomes of Burkholderia pseudomallei...
