Fig. 1 A comparison of methods used to identify and characterize Staphylococcus aureus, including (i) existing microbiological methods, (ii) currently evaluated whole genome sequencing (WGS) techniques, and (iii) potential future applications of WGS. MLST, multilocus sequence typing; MLVA, multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis; PFGE, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
