BacWGSTdb (http:\/\/bacdb.org\/BacWGSTdb) is a free publicly accessible database we have developed for bacterial whole-genome sequence typing and source tracking. This database incorporates extensive resources for bacterial genome sequencing data and the corresponding metadata, combined with specialized bioinformatics tools that enable the systematic characterization of the bacterial isolates recovered from infections. Here, we present BacWGSTdb 2.0, which encompasses several major updates, including (i) the integration of the core genome multi-locus sequence typing (cgMLST) approach, which is highly scalable and appropriate for typing isolates belonging to different lineages; (ii) the addition of a multiple genome analysis module that can process dozens of user uploaded sequences in a batch mode; (iii) a new source tracking module for comparing user uploaded plasmid sequences to those deposited in the public databases; (iv) the number of species encompassed in BacWGSTdb 2.0 has increased from 9 to 20, which represents bacterial pathogens of medical importance; (v) a newly designed, user-friendly interface and a set of visualization tools for providing a convenient platform for users are also included. Overall, the updated BacWGSTdb 2.0 bears great utility in continuing to provide users, including epidemiologists, clinicians and bench scientists, with a one-stop solution to bacterial genome sequence analysis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/nar\/gkaa821","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,17]],"date-time":"2020-09-17T13:41:20Z","timestamp":1600350080000},"page":"D644-D650","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":185,"title":["BacWGSTdb 2.0: a one-stop repository for bacterial whole-genome sequence typing and source tracking"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"49","author":[{"given":"Ye","family":"Feng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310016, China"},{"name":"Institute of Translational Medicine, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310029, China"}]},{"given":"Shengmei","family":"Zou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Translational Medicine, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310029, China"}]},{"given":"Hangfei","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310016, China"}]},{"given":"Yunsong","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310016, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8648-4592","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhi","family":"Ruan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310016, China"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021010313112816000_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"684","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/dyg282","article-title":"Infectious diseases\u2013past, present, and future","volume":"32","author":"Brachman","year":"2003","journal-title":"Int.
