Genetic basis underlying the serological affinity of leptospiral serovars from serogroups Sejroe, Mini and Hebdomadis
2022, Infection, Genetics and EvolutionCitation Excerpt :Differences in the sugar composition and orientation of LPS are the key features that distinguish the different serovars (Adler, 2015). It is noteworthy that the serological classification has no correspondence with taxonomic classification (Faine et al., 1999; Kalambaheti et al., 1999; Mitchison et al., 1997). We could find different Leptospira species classified in the same serovar, e.g. the strains of srv Hardjo (srg Sejroe) has representatives of species Li and L. borgpetersenii (Lb) (Faine et al., 1999), and also a Leptospira species classified in different serovars.
