Differences in a plasmid profile of the allocated strain (existence of two additional plasmids - pBS512 S. boydii and pO26-Vir E. coli H30) that, apparently, provided the raised strain pathogenicity, and, respectively, allowed to cause large flash of a shigellosis in Tkuarchal in the Republic Abkhazia. conclusion.
