A critical re-evaluation of multilocus sequence typing (MLST) efforts in Wolbachia.

FEMS microbiology ecology - 1 Jan 2018

Bleidorn Christoph, Gerth Michael

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia (Alphaproteobacteria, Rickettsiales) is the most common, and arguably one of the most important inherited symbionts. Molecular differentiation of Wolbachia strains is routinely performed with a set of five multilocus sequence typing (MLST) markers. However, since its inception in 2006, the performance of MLST in Wolbachia strain typing has not been assessed objectively. Here, we evaluate the properties...
