Species ID

Use ribosomal MLST to accurately identify bacterial species from a genome assembly.
Agar plate
Submit data

We welcome submissions to the databases we host. Submissions may consist of allele sequences, MLST profiles, or isolate records with or without genome assemblies.
Neisseria meningitidis
Global Meningitis Genome Library

Global genome data on the four leading causes of bacterial meningitis: the meningococcus, the pneumococcus, Haemophilus influenzae, and Group B streptococci (GBS).
Treponema pallidum
Sexually transmitted infections

Databases for major causative agents of STIs: Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydiales spp, Mycoplasma genitalium, and Treponema pallidum
Louis Pasteur
Pasteur BIGSdb

Our close colleagues and friends at the Institut Pasteur, Paris, host databases for a range of species not available on PubMLST. The same software is used for both sites.
