In this tutorial we will screen whole genome sequences of Listeria samples for phenotypic traits using the Listeria functional genotyping plugin. Phenotypic traits include: serotype, virulence, and detergent and antibiotic resistance. The plugin also allows you to detect phages.
Demonstration database containing data for a set of 51 Listeria monocytogenes isolates. This database uses publicly available next-generation sequence reads from the Sequence Read Archive (SRA). For each isolate, NGS reads were de novo assembled into genome sequences. wgMLST alleles were called using the assembly-based and assembly-free method.
Note that the downloaded database backup file (.bnbk) can be restored via the Restore database... functionality in the BIONUMERICS startup screen.
