Identification of Escherichia coli and Shigella Species from Whole-Genome Sequences.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Feb 2017

Chattaway Marie A, Schaefer Ulf, Tewolde Rediat, Dallman Timothy J, Jenkins Claire

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli and Shigella species are closely related and genetically constitute the same species. Differentiating between these two pathogens and accurately identifying the four species of Shigella are therefore challenging. The organism-specific bioinformatics whole-genome sequencing (WGS) typing pipelines at Public Health England are dependent on the initial identification of the bacterial species by use...
