title: Multilocus sequence typing and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis of Oenococcus oeni from different wine-producing regions of China.
abstract: The present study established a typing method with NotI-based pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and stress response gene schemed multilocus sequence typing (MLST) for 55 Oenococcus oeni strains isolated from six individual regions in China and two model strains PSU-1 (CP000411) and ATCC BAA-1163 (AAUV00000000). Seven stress response genes, cfa, clpL, clpP, ctsR, mleA, mleP and omrA, were selected for MLST testing, and positive selective pressure was detected for these genes. Furthermore, both methods separated the strains into two clusters. The PFGE clusters are correlated with the region, whereas the sequence types (STs) formed by the MLST confirm the two clusters identified by PFGE. In addition, the population structure was a mixture of evolutionary pathways, and the strains exhibited both clonal and panmictic characteristics.
