Characterization ofBorrelia burgdorferiAggregates [PDF]

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2009
Lyme disease is caused by the tick-borne spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi. It has been documented that B. burgdorferi form aggregates within ticks and during in vitro culture. However, Borrelia aggregates remain poorly characterized, and their functional significance is unknown.

RNA-Seq-based analysis of changes in Borrelia burgdorferi gene expression linked to pathogenicity

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Lyme disease is a global public health problem caused by the spirochaete Borrelia burgdorferi. Our previous studies found differences in disease severity between B. burgdorferi B31- and B. garinii SZ-infected mice.

The genetic diversity of Borrelia afzelii is not maintained by the diversity of the rodent hosts. [PDF]

, 2018
Small mammals are essential in the enzootic cycle of many tick-borne pathogens (TBP). To understand their contribution to the genetic diversity of Borrelia afzelii, the most prevalent TBP in questing Ixodes ricinus, we compared the genetic variants of B.
