Short read sequence typing (SRST): multi-locus sequence types from short reads
Background Multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) has become the gold standard for population analyses of bacterial pathogens. This method focuses on the sequences of a small number of loci (usually seven) to divide the population and is simple, robust and ...

An MLSA-based online scheme for the rapid identification of Stenotrophomonas isolates [PDF]
An online scheme to assign Stenotrophomonas isolates to genomic groups was developed using the multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA), which is based on the DNA sequencing of selected fragments of the housekeeping genes ATP synthase alpha subunit (atpA ...

ABSTRACT Micoureus is the most species‐rich subgenus within the genus Marmosa. Conflicting arrangements regarding the number of species comprising this subgenus have been proposed and the validity of M. budini has been debated. Here, we used an approach integrating genetic and morphological data were conducted to reanalyze the ‘rapposa’ group ...

Using BOX-PCR to exclude a clonal outbreak of melioidosis
Background Although melioidosis in endemic regions is usually caused by a diverse range of Burkholderia pseudomallei strains, clonal outbreaks from contaminated potable water have been described. Furthermore B. pseudomallei is classified as a CDC Group B

Limited asymptomatic carriage of Pneumocystis jiroveci in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients [PDF]
Forty-seven bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples from 16 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients were used to test the latency model of Pneumocystis infection in the human host.

ABSTRACT The Amazon and Atlantic forests harbour immense biodiversity shaped by complex evolutionary history with diverse processes leading to species build‐up. We investigated the Cinereous Antshrike species complex (Thamnomanes caesius and T. schistogynus) to disentangle the relative contributions of riverine barriers and historical climatic ...

Burkholderia pseudomallei in Unchlorinated Domestic Bore Water, Tropical Northern Australia
To determine whether unchlorinated bore water in northern Australia contained Burkholderia pseudomallei organisms, we sampled 55 bores; 18 (33%) were culture positive. Multilocus sequence typing identified 15 sequence types. The B.

In ecological field studies where species‐level identification is challenging, practical approaches based on external morphological traits may provide a useful basis for rapid assessments. Here, New Zealand serpulid worms were initially grouped based on their external calcareous tube morphology and subsequently sequenced using the 18S rRNA gene to ...

Multilocus sequence typing of from broilers
isolates from a national Swedish monitoring in broilers were characterized by multilocus sequencing typing (MLST) in order to study the genetic diversity of this bacterial population. Isolates were initially characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). One hundred were chosen for MLST genotyping.

Phylogeny and Disease Association of Shiga Toxin–producing Escherichia coli O91
The diversity and relatedness of 100 Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli O91 isolates from different patients were examined by multilocus sequence typing. We identified 10 specific sequence types (ST) and 4 distinct clonal groups.
