Genome Resequencing of Laboratory Stocks of Burkholderia pseudomallei K96243.

We have resequenced the genomes of four Burkholderia pseudomallei K96243 laboratory cultures and compared them to the reported genome sequence that was published in 2004. Compared with the reference genome, these laboratory cultures harbored up to 42 single-nucleotide variants and up to 11 indels, including a 31.7-kb deletion in one culture
