title: Combining suppression subtractive hybridization and microarrays to map the intraspecies phylogeny of Flavobacterium psychrophilum.
abstract: Reciprocal subtractive libraries were prepared for two strains of Flavobacterium psychrophilum, one virulent and the other avirulent in a trout challenge model. Unique clones were sequenced and their distribution assessed among 34 strains. The analysis showed that F. psychrophilum is composed of two genetic lineages, possibly reflecting host specificity.
