Evaluation of adding a second marker to overcome Staphylococcus aureus spa typing homoplasies.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Apr 2012

Basset P, Nübel U, Witte W, Blanc D S

Abstract excerpt

The utility of sequencing a second highly variable locus in addition to the spa gene (e.g., double-locus sequence typing [DLST]) was investigated to overcome limitations of a Staphylococcus aureus single-locus typing method. Although adding a second locus seemed to increase discriminatory power, it was not sufficient to definitively infer evolutionary relationships within a single multilocus sequence type (ST-5).
