Purpose

The scripts in this repository are to be used to perform in silico serotyping of Salmonella enterica in accordance with MMS136. This pipeline allows us to infer the Salmonella serovar; replacing phenotypic serotyping while ensuring backwards compatibility with historical typing data (on the White-Kauffman-Le Minor scheme), and continuity in public health surveillance.

Input & Output

This pipeline takes as input a draft assembly and outputs a serotype inference. The draft assembly is obtained by performing a de novo assembly on FASTQ data found to have passed MMS103 and to be identified as Salmonella enterica by kmer ID and by a wet laboratory method.
