In-depth sequence analysis of highly-conserved pyrH gene to study distributions of oral treponemes in periodontal disease versus health
Background: More than 75 species/species-level phylotypes of oral treponeme bacteria inhabit the oral cavity. However, their respective genomic compositions and clinical distributions remain poorly understood. Objectives: To compare distributions of phylogroup 1 and 2 oral treponemes in subjects wit...
