Abstract

Bacterial genome sequencing has revolutionized the research landscape and promises to deliver important changes to the clinical microbiology laboratory, through the identification of novel diagnostic targets and through the birth of a new discipline or "genomic epidemiology." Current progress and future prospects for exploitation of genome sequences in clinical bacteriology are reviewed.
