The BIGSdb website is implementing new settings regarding data access. Data curated in 2025 (and later) will not be accessible for anonymous (non-logged-in users). If you wish to have access to data curated in 2025 and beyond, please register on the platform and login when using it. Note that access via the application programming interface (API) will also require authentication to access recent data (API authentication help link).
To ensure a smooth transition, anonymous data access will be periodically closed and opened from 1st October 2024 until the end of the year. For detailed planning, please follow this link.
On 1st January 2025, registration will be permanently mandatory to access data curated after the 31st of December 2024.
Please contact us if you have any questions.
Genomic library of Bordetella - Bridel et al. preprint has been published in biorXiv!
A unified library of Bordetella genomes has been set-up by merging previously existing Oxford and Pasteur databases, importing genomes from public repositories, and developing harmonized genotyping schemes. A genus-wide cgMLST genotyping scheme was developed and 18 putative novel species found. Specific schemes were developed to define antigenic, virulence and macrolide resistance profiles.
Access the Bordetella genomic library at https://bigsdb.pasteur.fr/bordetella/
The genomic platform provides an expandable resource for unified genotyping of Bordetella strains and will hopefully facilitate collective evolutionary and epidemiological understanding of the reemergence of whooping cough and other Bordetella infections.
