. . . . "Development and validation of ClonalTracker, a tool that assesses for a pair of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) genomes whether they are related through clonal spread or through horizontal transfer, by comparing the van operon, its carrying transposon, and whole-genome similarity. The method was validated on two previously analyzed public VRE datasets and applied to a third dataset of 323 vanB VRE isolates, in which clonal expansion was found to be the dominant dissemination mode. The tool is available at clonaltracker.nl." . . . . "ClonalTracker development and validation study" . . . . . . . "study" . "observational investigation" . "Victoria Pascal Andreu" . "Tobias Kuhn" .
