Correction to: Genomic analysis of Leptospira interrogans serovar Paidjan and Dadas isolates from carrier dogs and comparative genomic analysis to detect genes under positive selection (BMC Genomics (2019) 20 (168) DOI: 10.1186/s12864-019-5562-z)

Abstract

© 2019 The Author(s). Following the publication of this article [1], the authors noted an error in the caption of Fig. 4. The caption was published incorrectly as: Figure 4 The distribution and conservation of 33 representative confirmed virulence genes in pathogenic, intermediate and non-pathogenic Leptospira species. Genes encoding for outer membrane protein (loa22), flagella motor switch protein (fliY), and hemolysins B and C (tlyB and tlyC) were conserved in all 24 Leptospira strains. Genes encoding was conserved only in pathogenic Leptospira strains. Strains CUDO5 and CUDO8 contained all of the 33 virulence genes The correct figure and caption is reproduced in this Correction article: The original article has been corrected. (Figure Presented).
