Refinement of whole-genome multilocus sequence typing analysis by addressing gene paralogy.

ABSTRACT: We developed a user-friendly program, Genome Profiler (GeP), to refine whole-genome multilocus sequence typing analysis by addressing gene paralogy with conserved gene neighborhoods. In comparison to similar programs, GeP produced overall the best results in terms of accuracy and is thus a useful alternative to resolve relationships of bacterial isolates.
