News

A MLST scheme for Chlamydiales species has been developed by Yvonne Pannekoek, Arie van der Ende and colleages at the Academic Medical Center (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) and is now available.

The Klebsiella pneumoniae database has moved to the Pasteur MLST site.

The MLST scheme for Arcobacter species is now available. This scheme was developed by William Miller (USDA).
