Multilocus Sequence Typing of Total-Genome-Sequenced Bacteria [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2012 ABSTRACT Accurate strain identification is essential for anyone working with bacteria. For many species, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is considered the “gold standard” of typing, but it is traditionally performed in an expensive and time-consuming manner.

Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool for Cyclospora cayetanensis [PDF]
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.

Inaccurate Multilocus Sequence Typing of Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
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.

Consensus Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Pneumocystis jirovecii [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2020 Pneumocystis jirovecii is an opportunistic human pathogenic fungus causing severe pneumonia mainly in immunocompromised hosts. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) remains the gold standard for genotyping of this unculturable fungus.

Optimized multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for Trypanosoma cruzi. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014 Trypanosoma cruzi, the aetiological agent of Chagas disease possess extensive genetic diversity. This has led to the development of a plethora of molecular typing methods for the identification of both the known major genetic lineages and for more fine ...

Multilocus sequence typing breathes life into a microbial metagenome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2006 Shot-gun sequencing of DNA isolated from the environment and the assembly of metagenomes from the resulting data has considerably advanced the study of microbial diversity.

Multilocus sequence typing of Propionibacterium freudenreichii [PDF]
International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2011 Propionibacterium freudenreichii is used as a ripening culture in Swiss cheese manufacture. This study investigates the molecular diversity and the population structure of this bacterium via multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Internal fragments of seven genes sequenced for 113 strains of different subspecies and origins allowed the resolution of 46 ...

The multilocus sequence typing network: mlst.net [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2005 The unambiguous characterization of strains of a pathogen is crucial for addressing questions relating to its epidemiology, population and evolutionary biology. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST), which defines strains from the sequences at seven house-keeping loci, has become the method of choice for molecular typing of many bacterial and fungal ...

Multilocus sequence typing of Mycoplasma agalactiae [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2011 Mycoplasma agalactiae is the main cause of contagious agalactia, a serious disease of sheep and goats, which has major clinical and economic impacts. We have developed a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme using the sequenced genomes of the M. agalactiae strains PG2 and 5632.
