Insight of Genus Corynebacterium: Ascertaining the Role of Pathogenic and Non-pathogenic Species
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017This review gathers recent information about genomic and transcriptomic studies in the Corynebacterium genus, exploring, for example, prediction of pathogenicity islands and stress response in different pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. In addition,
