A provisional chromosome map of Shigella and the regions related to pathogenicity.
Based on the literature and the authors' studies, the genetic markers of Shigella and the chromosome regions connected with pathogenicity are listed. A provisional map of Shigella chromosome and another provisional map indicating the chromosomal regions related to Shigella virulence have been constructed. Both maps could be useful for further genetic investigations of Shigella.
