Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni P110B genome sequencing. Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni P110B

Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni P110B. Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni P110B was isolated in August 2005 from a fresh, whole chicken carcass purchased from a supermarket in Palmerston North, NZ. Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni is one of the most common causes for gastroenteritis worldwide, with New Zealand having a very high rate of the disease compared to other developed nations. This isolate is of a rare MLST strain type, found almost exclusively in NZ and estimated to be responsible for nearly 25-30% of human cases of campylobacteriosis in that country.
