Molecular Typing of Burkholderia mallei Isolates from Equids with Glanders, India [PDF]
We collected 10 Burkholderia mallei isolates from equids in 9 districts in India during glanders outbreaks in 2013–2016. Multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis showed 7 outbreak area–related genotypes.

Alanine Racemase Mutants of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei and Use of Alanine Racemase as a Non-Antibiotic-Based Selectable Marker [PDF]
Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei are category B select agents and must be studied under BSL3 containment in the United States. They are typically resistant to multiple antibiotics, and the antibiotics used to treat B.

Clinical and Molecular Characterization of Human Burkholderia mallei Infection, Brazil [PDF]
We report a case of Burkholderia mallei causing glanders in a 73-year-old patient from the Northeast Region of Brazil. The patient was hospitalized with severe pneumonia. PCR and genomic sequencing confirmed B. mallei in pleural drainage.

Expression of virulence and antimicrobial related proteins in Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei. [PDF]
BackgroundBurkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei are both potential biological threat agents. Melioidosis caused by B. pseudomallei is endemic in Southeast Asia and Northern Australia, while glanders caused by B.

Genetic diversity and spatial distribution of Burkholderia mallei by core genome-based multilocus sequence typing analysis. [PDF]
Burkholderia mallei is the etiological agent of glanders, a highly contagious and often fatal disease in equids. Due to the high genetic clonality of B. mallei, high-resolution typing assays are necessary to differentiate between individual strains. Here

Genomic pattern analysis of Burkholderia mallei field isolates by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) discriminatory typing [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Glanders is a serious zoonotic disease caused by Burkholderia mallei. Prevention, control, and treatment strategies of glanders are prerequisites for microbial source tracking. The present study was aimed to analyze the genomic
