The spread of Mycoplasma pneumoniae is polyclonal in both an endemic setting in France and in an epidemic setting in Israel. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections occur both endemically and epidemically, and macrolide resistance has been spreading for 10 years worldwide. A substantial increased incidence of M. pneumoniae infections has been reported in several countries since 2010.

Multi locus variable-number tandem repeat (MLVA) typing tools improved the surveillance of Salmonella enteritidis: a 6 years retrospective study.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Surveillance of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Enteritidis is generally considered to benefit from molecular techniques like multiple-locus variable-number of tandem repeats analysis (MLVA), which allow early detection and confinement of ...

Spatial distribution of Legionella pneumophila MLVA-genotypes in a drinking water system [PDF]

Water Research, 2015
Bacteria of the genus Legionella cause water-based infections, resulting in severe pneumonia. To improve our knowledge about Legionella spp. ecology, its prevalence and its relationships with environmental factors were studied. Seasonal samples were taken from both water and biofilm at seven sampling points of a small drinking water distribution system

Population structure of Bartonella henselae in Algerian urban stray cats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Whole blood samples from 211 stray cats from Algiers, Algeria, were cultured to detect the presence of Bartonella species and to evaluate the genetic diversity of B. henselae strains by multiple locus VNTR analysis (MLVA).

MLVA and com1 genotyping of Coxiella burnetii in farmed ruminants in Great Britain

Veterinary Microbiology, 2023
Coxiella burnetii, the causative agent of the zoonotic disease Q fever, has been shown to be endemic in Great Britain, but information on the prevailing genomic lineages or Genomic Groups (GGs) of Coxiella burnetii is limited. The aim of this study was to genotype C.

MLVA typing of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae bacterins and field strains

Veterinary Record Open, 2015
Because of the lack of information about both the genetic characteristics of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae commercial vaccines and their relationship with field strains, the authors attempted to identify genetic subtypes of some M hyopneumoniae bacterins ...

High resolution typing of Chlamydophila psittaci by multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA) [PDF]

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2008
A multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA) system for detection of tandem repeats across the whole genome of Chlamydophila psittaci has been developed. Twenty selected genetic loci were initially tested on 9 avian reference strains including representatives of all major serotypes (A to F).

Improvement of the MLVA typing scheme for Burkholderia mallei strains

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии
Introduction. The registration of sporadic cases of glanders in horses in Russia, caused by Burkholderia mallei, highlights the importance of developing genotyping algorithms for this pathogen. The MLVA method (multilocus-variable tandem repeat analysis),

Variation in Mycobacterium bovis genetic richness suggests that inwards cattle movements are a more important source of infection in beef herds than in dairy herds

BMC Microbiology, 2019
Background We used genetic Multi-Locus VNTR Analysis (MLVA) data gathered from surveillance efforts to better understand the ongoing bovine tuberculosis (bTB) epidemic in Northern Irish cattle herds.
