Revisiting Bartonella bacilliformis MLST
All the studies published including Bartonella bacilliformis MLST data, as well as all B. bacilliformis genomes present in GenBank were analyzed. Overall 64 isolates and their geographical distribution were analyzed, and 14 different MLST patterns were observed. The results highlight the need for expanding the MLST studies and adding a higher number of

Optimized Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) Scheme for Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]
Trypanosoma cruzi, el agente etiológico de la enfermedad de Chagas, posee una amplia diversidad genética. Esto ha llevado al desarrollo de una gran cantidad de métodos de tipificación molecular para la identificación de los principales linajes genéticos conocidos y para una caracterización a menor escala de diferentes genotipos multilocus dentro de ...

Streaming Complexity of Spanning Tree Computation [PDF]
The semi-streaming model is a variant of the streaming model frequently used for the computation of graph problems. It allows the edges of an n-node input graph to be read sequentially in p passes using Õ(n) space.

mlstdbNet – distributed multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) databases [PDF]
Multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) is a method of typing that facilitates the discrimination of microbial isolates by comparing the sequences of housekeeping gene fragments. The mlstdbNet software enables the implementation of distributed web-accessible MLST databases that can be linked widely over the Internet.The software enables multiple isolate ...
