A Core Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Enterococcus faecalis [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2019 Among enterococci, Enterococcus faecalis occurs ubiquitously, with the highest incidence of human and animal infections. The high genetic plasticity of E. faecalis complicates both molecular investigations and phylogenetic analyses.

Inaccurate Multilocus Sequence Typing of Acinetobacter baumannii
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 Multilocus sequence typing has been useful for genotyping pathogens in surveillance and epidemiologic studies. However, it cannot reflect the true relationships of isolates for species with very dynamic genomes.

refMLST: reference-based multilocus sequence typing enables universal bacterial typing [PDF]
BMC BioinformaticsBackground Commonly used approaches for genomic investigation of bacterial outbreaks, including SNP and gene-by-gene approaches, are limited by the requirement for background genomes and curated allele schemes, respectively.

Development of a Providencia stuartii multilocus sequence typing scheme [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionThe Providencia genus is assuming greater clinical relevance among infections caused by Enterobacterales also because of its intrinsic and acquired resistance to last-resort antibiotics. However, despite having been known and studied for over

Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool for Cyclospora cayetanensis
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016 Because the lack of typing tools for Cyclospora cayetanensis has hampered outbreak investigations, we sequenced its genome and developed a genotyping tool. We observed 2 to 10 geographically segregated sequence types at each of 5 selected loci.

Multilocus Sequence Typing of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Japan, 2002–2016
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018 In Japan, Mycoplasma pneumoniae resistance to macrolides is high. To compare sequence types (STs) of susceptible and resistant isolates, we performed multilocus sequence typing for 417 isolates obtained in Japan during 2002–2016.
