摘要
Leptospirosis has emerged to become a major public health problem in developing countries. The availability of complete sequences of strains representing saprophytic and pathogenic species of the genus Leptospira is providing insights into the evolution of virulence and survival mechanisms used by these bacteria to persist in different ecological niches.
