Abstract:
This study was aimed at analyzing the molecular epidemiological characteristics of Brucella in Shanxi Province from 2020 to 2023.A total of 479 clinical Brucella strains were identified in Shanxi Province from 2020 to 2023.The strains were preliminarily identified through biochemical methods.The genome was extracted for MLVA-16 typing and whole genome sequencing.MLVA-16 clustering results indicated 50.5%to 100%strain similarity.The strains were typed into 204 VNTR types by MLVA-16,whereas the panel 2B locus showed polymorphism.The clustering results indicated 11 VNTR types with more than five strains.Whole genome sequencing was performed for VNTRS types in large clusters.cgMLST clustering indica-ted similar clustering of strains.Brucella was effectively distinguished through MLVA typing.The phylogenetic relationship and epidemiological characteristics of strains can be distinguished more effectively by cgMLST.Specific Brucella genotypes were transmitted in Shanxi Province from 2020 to 2023.
