Whole Genome Sequencing of Burkholderia pseudomallei Clinical Isolates from Central India
This study generated whole-genome sequencing data of clinical Burkholderia pseudomallei isolates identified in Central India to support genomic characterization, phylogenetic analysis, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), virulence factor profiling and the detection of antimicrobial resistance determinants. While, genomic data from southern and eastern coastal states of India had become increasingly available, sequencing data from landlocked states had remained scarce. The data generated in this study filled an important geographical gap by providing genomic representation from an underreported region.
