Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis strain FSC043 resequencing
Francisella tularensis subsp. tularensis FSC043 genome project.
<P><B><I>Francisella tularensis</I> subsp. <I>tularensis</I> FSC043</B>.  <I>Francisella tularensis</I> subsp. <I>tularensis</I> FSC043 is a derivative of the SCHU strain.  Both the FSC043 strain and the SCHU S4 strain are derived from a strain originally isolated from a human ulcer by Dr. Lee Foshay in Ohio 1941. <I>Francisella tularensis</I> subsp. <I>tularensis</I> FSC043, together with the FSC198 and SCHU S4 strains, will provide information about mutational patterns in contrasting environments.
