A new database has been set up for Serratia spp. based on a MLSA scheme described in Besler & Little 2017 Plant Dis 101:129-136. The database is curated by Kayo Cesar Bianco Fernandes (FIOCRUZ, Brazil).
We have had to implement rate-limiting on the API. We have always requested that API calls are limited to no more than 4 concurrent connections. This is now enforced due to abuse and additional connections will automatically be rejected.
A new database has been set up for Proteus spp. using a MLST scheme described in Dai et al. 2015 BMC Microbiology 20:152. The database is curated by Kayo Cesar Bianco Fernandes.
A MLST scheme for Mycoplasma hyosynoviae has been developed by Moritz Bünger and Joachim Spergser at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, Austria and is now available.
A new database has been set up for Lactococcus garvieae to support the MLST scheme described in Ferrario et al. 2013 PLoS One 8:e84796. The database is curated by Guilherme Campos, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil.
A MLST scheme for Streptococcus mitis is now available. This has been developed by Akuzike Kalizang’oma and Chrispin Chaguza and is described in Kalizang’oma et al. 2022 J. Clin Microbiol.
If you use the Meningococcal Deduced Vaccine Antigen Reactivity (MenDeVAR) Index to test for Bexsero or Trumenba vaccine coverage of meningococcal isolates, note that this is now accessible via the PubMLST API, facilitating its use in analysis pipelines.
