Genomic Microevolution of Vibrio cholerae O1, Lake Tanganyika Basin, Africa
Résumé
Africa’s Lake Tanganyika basin is a cholera hotspot. During 2001–2020, Vibrio cholerae O1 isolates obtained from the Democratic Republic of the Congo side of the lake belonged to 2 of the 5 clades of the AFR10 sublineage. One clade became predominant after acquiring a parC mutation that decreased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin.
