Update - SRST2 Now Available

25 Sep, 2013

This project has now been replaced by SRST2 - Short Read Sequence Typing for Bacterial Pathogens, available at http://katholt.github.io/srst2/

The new SRST2 program does gene typing as well as MLST (e.g. typing resistance genes, virulence genes, etc). SRST2 is faster and more accurate than the old SRST, using bowtie2 to achieve local alignments (no need for flanking sequences) and a brand new scoring system.

Legacy version

Python scripts and documentation are available in the Downloads section.

Online [User guide] is also available for the old version.
