Development of multilocus sequence typing (MLST) for characterization of Pseudomonas putida
n the view of a human pathogen, P. putida is an opportunistic pathogen causing catheter-related  bacteremia, cholangitis associated with biliary drainage tubes, cholecystitis, pneumonia, urinary tract  infections, and war wounds. Outbreaks of P. putida due to contaminated fluids or blood have been reported.  Drug resistant P. putida isolates have been reported. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a powerful tool to  analyze  epidemiology of bacteria In this study, we developed MLST for P. putida.
