Utilization of the persistent nature of Brucella in the development of live vaccines /

The roles of genes responsible for the survival and persistence of Brucella in the host and the relationship between these genes and the disease were investigated via signature-tagged transposon mutagenesis. As much as 8% of the Brucella genome is important for survival of this organism in the host...
