Potential distributions of < i > Bacillus anthracis < /i > and < i > Bacillus cereus < /i > biovar < i > anthracis < /i > causing anthrax in Africa
Conclusions/SignificanceThis study represents the first time that the environmental and geographic distribution of Bcbva has been mapped. We document likely differences in ecological niche —and consequently in geographic distribution—between Bcbva and typicalB.anthracis, and areas of possible co-occurrence between the two. We provide information crucial to guiding and improving monitoring efforts focused on these pathogens.
