MLVA plugin manual
In this manual you will learn how to install the MLVA plugin in your BIONUMERICS database, how to import curve files and peak tables, and how to obtain the VNTR copy numbers.
MIRU-VNTR plugin manual
In this manual you will learn how to install the MIRU-VNTR plugin in your BIONUMERICS database, how to import curve files and peak tables, obtain copy numbers, and how to connect to the online MIRU-VNTRplus database to assign known types to your data and to submit new types.
Follow-up analysis of MLVA data
In this tutorial you will learn how to perform some cluster analyses (UPGMA tree, minimum spanning tree) on MLVA data in BIONUMERICS. You will also learn how to alter the layout of the clusterings and how to export the pictures to use it in a publication, presentation, etc.
Creating an MLVA typing scheme
In this tutorial an MLVA typing scheme is created and used to type entries in BIONUMERICS.
