Article Synopsis
- Brucellosis is widespread in Central Asia, causing high infection rates in humans and animals, yet little genetic diversity of the Brucella strains in this area is understood.
- The study analyzed the genetic variation of 128 strains of B. melitensis and 124 strains of B. abortus in Kazakhstan using a method called MLVA, finding a strong genetic link to strains from China.
- Results showed limited genetic diversity among the strains, with identical profiles found in unrelated outbreaks across China, Turkey, and Kazakhstan, highlighting the need for further research on the disease's epidemiology.
