Development of a core genome Multilocus Sequence Typing (cgMLST) and Life Identification Number (LIN) code schema for the Burkholderia cepacia complex
Background The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) currently comprises over 20 closely related species; however, understanding Bcc population biology is complicated due to the continual advances in taxonomy and diversity driven by extensive horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Whilst there are conventional typing schemes for the Bcc, including Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST), there remains a gap for…
