What we have in this dataset?
The system provides two major automated real-time analyses: 1) it quickly clusters related pathogen genome sequences to identify potential transmission chains, helping public health scientists investigate disease outbreaks, and 2) as part of the National Database of Antibiotic Resistant Organisms (NDARO), NCBI screens genomic sequences using AMRFinderPlus to identify the antimicrobial resistance, stress response, and virulence genes found in bacterial genomic sequences, which enables scientists to track the spread of resistance genes and to understand the relationships among antimicrobial resistance, stress response, and virulence.
