Comparative VNTR- and SNP-genotype analysis of four Bacillus anthracis strains (three vaccinal and one virulent) was carried out using modern molecular-genetic typing methods. It is established that these strains formed four SNP patterns completely corresponding to the VNTR-profiles. It was demonstrated that all strains tested except vaccinal B. anthracis STI-1 could not belong by SNP-profile to three global genetic lines of the anthrax agent extended in the world.
