Molecular Typing of Burkholderia mallei Isolates from Equids with Glanders, India [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021 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.
