  • Beschreibung: <jats:p> <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">Campylobacter jejuni</jats:named-content> is a leading cause of enteric bacterial illness in the United States. Traditional molecular subtyping methods, such as pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and 7-gene multilocus sequence typing (MLST), provided limited resolution to adequately identify <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">C. jejuni</jats:named-content> outbreaks and separate out sporadic isolates during outbreak investigations. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has emerged as a powerful tool for <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">C. jejuni</jats:named-content> outbreak detection. </jats:p>
