Genetic diversity and delineation of Salmonella Agona outbreak strains by next generation sequencing, Bavaria, Germany, 1993 to 2018.

ConclusionEven for S. Agona, species-level cgMLST can produce reasonable resolution, being standardisable by public health laboratories. For single samples or homogeneous sample sets, higher resolution by serovar-specific cgMLST or SNP genotyping can facilitate outbreak investigations. PMID: 31064635 [PubMed - in process]
