Phage typing or CRISPR typing for epidemiological surveillance of Salmonella Typhimurium? [PDF]
BMC Research Notes, 2017 Objective Salmonella Typhimurium is the most dominant Salmonella serovar around the world. It is associated with foodborne gastroenteritis outbreaks but has recently been associated with invasive illness and deaths. Characterization of S.

Long-read sequencing-based in silico phage typing of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2021 Background Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are successful nosocomial pathogens able to cause hospital outbreaks. In the Netherlands, core-genome MLST (cgMLST) based on short-read sequencing is often used for molecular typing.

Efficient detection and typing of phage-plasmids [PDF]
mBioPhage-plasmids (P-Ps) are temperate phages that replicate as plasmids during lysogeny. Despite their high diversity, they carry genes similar to phages and plasmids. This leads to gene exchanges and to the formation of hybrid or defective elements, which
