In naturally occurring outbreaks and in criminal release of this pathogen, a fast and accurate diagnosis is crucial to an effective response. Microbiological forensics and epidemiologic investigations increasingly rely on molecular markers, such as polymorphisms in DNA sequence, to obtain reliable information regarding the identification or source of a suspicious strain. Over the past decade, significant research efforts have been undertaken to develop genotyping methods with increased power to differentiate\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">B. anthracis<\/jats:italic>\n                    strains.

This article provides an overview of the different phylogenetic subgroups distributed across the world, with a particular focus on Europe. Updated information on the anthrax situation in Europe is reported. A brief description of some of the work in progress in the work package 5.1 of the AniBioThreat project is also presented, including (1) the development of a robust typing tool based on a suspension array technology and multiplexed single nucleotide polymorphisms scoring and (2) the typing of a collection of DNA from European isolates exchanged between the partners of the project. The know-how acquired will contribute to improving the EU's ability to react rapidly when the identity and real origin of a strain need to be established.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/bsp.2013.0003","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,24]],"date-time":"2013-08-24T10:54:12Z","timestamp":1377341652000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Genetic Diversity of\n                    <i>Bacillus anthracis<\/i>\n                    in Europe: Genotyping Methods in Forensic and Epidemiologic Investigations"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Sylviane","family":"Derzelle","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simon","family":"Thierry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","first-page":"1","volume-title":"Anthrax","author":"Turnbull PC","year":"2002","unstructured":"Turnbull PC.
