A comprehensive resource for Bordetella genomic epidemiology and biodiversity studies [PDF]
The genus Bordetella includes environmental bacteria as well as human pathogens. Here, the authors present a large database of environmental and clinical Bordetella isolates and genome sequences, and develop genotyping systems to facilitate evolutionary ...

The evolution of pertactin expression in Belgian circulating B. pertussis strains, pre- and post-COVID-19 [PDF]
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bordetella pertussis strains not producing pertactin were globally increasing, especially in countries using the acellular pertussis vaccine. Subsequently, during the pandemic, global pertussis incidence dropped to extreme
