| genome rearrangements of completely sequenced strains of yersinia pestis. | yersinia pestis has caused three worldwide plagues in human history that have led to innumerable deaths. we have completely sequenced the genomes of two strains (d106004 and d182038) of y. pestis isolated from yunnan province of china. the most striking finding of our study is that large amounts of genome rearrangement events exist between the genomes of two yunnan strains despite being isolated from two foci only 50 kilometers apart. when we compared the genome sequences of the yunnan strains w ... | 2010 | 20200297 |
