Molecular Patchwork: Chromosomal Recombination between Two Helicobacter pylori Strains during Natural Colonization

Genetic analysis of two Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from a single gastric biopsy showed evidence of extensive horizontal gene transfer. Several large recombinations were identified in the rdxA gene, which is involved in metronidazole resistance.
