The EnteroBase user's guide, with case studies on Salmonella transmissions, Yersinia pestis phylogeny, and Escherichia core genomic diversity (2019, background): “…bacterial isolates are routinely assigned to haplogroups or clades by PCR tests for the presence of variably present genes from the accessory genome (Clermont et al. 2013) or by programs that identify the presence of those genes in genomic sequences (Beghain et al. 2018; Waters et al. 2018).”
