A fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism study of Salmonella enterica serovar Sofia, the major Salmonella serovar isolated from chickens in Australia.

Fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (FAFLP) analysis was performed on 68 isolates of Salmonella enterica subsp. salamae serovar Sofia (S. Sofia).

Temperate phages in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium: implications for epidemiology.

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is the most common Salmonella serovar isolated from humans in Australia. The most common definitive phage types (DT) include 9, 64 and 135. Induction of lysogenic phages from DT 64 with mitomycin C followed by cesium chloride gradient purification, resulted in separation of two populations of phage particles.
