Colonial Morphology of Burkholderia cepacia Complex Genomovar III: Implications in Exopolysaccharide Production, Pilus Expression, and Persistence in the Mouse

The purpose of this study was to determine the role of colonial morphology of Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) organisms in pathogenicity in a mouse model of pulmonary infection. BCC strain C1394 was rapidly cleared by leukopenic mice after intranasal challenge, whereas a spontaneous variant (C139...
