Rapid high resolution genotyping of Francisella tularensis by whole genome sequence comparison of annotated genes ("MLST+").
The zoonotic disease tularemia is caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis. This pathogen is considered as a category A select agent with potential to be misused in bioterrorism. Molecular typing based on DNA-sequence like canSNP-typing or MLVA has become the accepted standard for this organis...
