Diversification and Distribution of Ruminant Chlamydia abortus Clones Assessed by MLST and MLVA
Chlamydia abortus, an obligate intracellular bacterium, is the most common infectious cause of abortion in small ruminants worldwide and has zoonotic potential. We applied multilocus sequence typing (MLST) together with multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) to genotype 94 ruminant C.

Francisella tularensis strain typing using multiple-locus, variable-number tandem repeat analysis [PDF]
Francisella tularensis, the etiological agent of tularemia, is found throughout the Northern hemisphere. After analyzing the F. tularensis genomic sequence for potential variable-number tandem repeats (VNTRs), we developed a multilocus VNTR analysis ...

ARTIC-like Bacillus anthracis MLVA amplicon sequencing protocol for MinION v1
Multiple-Locus Variable Number of Tandem Repeats (VNTR) Analysis (MLVA) is one of the gold standard strain-level subtyping methods for outbreak-related Bacillus anthracis strains. The repeat numbers of 31 VNTR loci can be determined by capillary electrophoresis of PCR amplicons spanning repeat regions or in silico analysis of whole genome sequencing ...

Genetic diversity of Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis in Kazakhstan using MLVA-16
Brucellosis is an endemic disease in Central Asia characterized by high infection rates in humans and animals. Currently, little is known about the genetic diversity of Brucella spp. circulating in the region, despite the high prevalence of brucellosis.
