  • Title: Genome conservation in isolates of Leptospira interrogans.
    Author: Herrmann JL, Baril C, Bellenger E, Perolat P, Baranton G, Saint Girons I.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1991 Dec; 173(23):7582-8. PubMed ID: 1938954.
    Abstract:
    Reference strains for each of the 23 serogroups of Leptospira interrogans yielded different pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns of NotI digestion products. This was also the case for the 14 serovars belonging to serogroup Icterohaemorrhagiae (with one exception). The NotI restriction patterns of 45 clinical leptospiral isolates belonging to serovar icterohaemorrhagiae were analyzed and compared with those of type strains. No differences were observed between isolates from countries of different continents, namely, France, French Guiana, New Caledonia, and Tahiti. The pattern was indistinguishable from that of the reference strain of serovar icterohaemorrhagiae.
