At the moment, it can only be statically rendered, via a github gist and the IPython notebook viewer. Might look further into hosting…
As part of the on-going rollout of WGS at PHE, we needed to know the MLST Sequence Type (ST) of the completed Salmonella reference genomes. However, this info was not that easy to come across either in the literature or the Salmonella MLSTdb. I deteremined the ST of these genomes by converting the completed sequence…
