Whole genome sequencing of 19 Burkholderia mallei strains from Pakistan
For assessing the genotype diversity of the bacterial agent of glanders, Burkholderia mallei, in Pakistan the genome sequences of 19 B. mallei strains that were isolated between 1999 and 2020 in the province Punjab were determined by Illumina sequencing.  Further, four strains from a strain collection were sequenced by Illumina and Oxford Nanopore Technologies for gaining less fragmented genomes as basis for genotyping method development.
