Complete genomic sequence and analysis of β2 toxin gene mapping of Clostridium perfringens JXJA17 isolated from piglets in China

Abstract Clostridium perfringens (Cp) is a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen of humans and animals in the natural environment and animal intestines. The pathogenicity of Cp depends on the production of toxins encoded by genes on the chromosomes or plasmids. In contemporary literature, there is no cl...
