B. burgdorferi isolates differ in pathogenicity, and a correlation between RST type and pathogenicity was observed: the most invasive of the isolates are associated with RST1 and the least invasive with RST3 (Wang et al. 2001, Wang et al. 2002, Wormser et al. 1999). Comparative genome hybridization ...
