Actinobacillus Pleuropneumoniae Population Biology
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is a major contributor to swine respiratory disease, causing considerable economic losses worldwide. Strategies to reduce the incidence and severity of disease include good husbandry, vaccination, and antibiotic treatment. Profiling of virulence and antibiotics resistance for A. pleuropneumoniae is required to inform vaccine and treatment.The aim of this study is to identify virulence and antibiotic resistant genes in in whole genome sequence (wgs) data.
