Short Read Sequence Typing for Bacterial Pathogens
This program is designed to take Illumina sequence data, a MLST database and/or a database of gene sequences (e.g. resistance genes, virulence genes, etc) and report the presence of STs and/or reference genes. The tool has a database of virulence factors that was extracted from http://www.mgc.ac.cn/VFs/ .
