Real-time genomic epidemiological evaluation of human Campylobacter isolates by use of whole-genome multilocus sequence typing.

Sequence-based typing is essential for understanding the epidemiology of Campylobacter infections, a major worldwide cause of bacterial gastroenteritis. We demonstrate the practical and rapid exploitation of whole-genome sequencing to provide routine definitive characterization of Campylobacter jeju...
