From: MLVA genotyping of Chinese human Brucella melitensisbiovar 1, 2 and 3 isolates
Dendrogram based on the MLVA-16 genotyping assay showing relationships of the 105 B. melitensis isolates. MLVA type: panel 1 and panel 2 genotypes in this article; key: serial number for the isolate in the Brucella2010 MLVA database http://mlva-u-psud.fr/; strain: strain name in the laboratory in which the DNA extraction was done; province/year: province and year of isolation; panel1, panel 2A, panel 2B: genotypes corresponding to each isolates in the database for each set of loci; The actual biotyping result is indicated in the species-biovar column.
