cgMLST@Taiwan: A web service platform for Vibrio cholerae cgMLST profiling and global strain tracking

We built a web service platform-cgMLST@Taiwan and installed a V. cholerae allele database, a cgMLST profile database, and computational tools for generating V. cholerae cgMLST profiles (based on 3,017 core genes), performing rapid global strain tracking, and clustering analysis of cgMLST profiles. This web-based platform provides services to researchers, public health microbiologists, and physicians who use WGS data for the investigation of cholera outbreaks and tracking of V. cholerae strain transmission across countries and geographic regions. The cgMLST@Taiwan is accessible at http://rdvd.cdc.gov.tw/cgMLST.
