The databases are now being powered by new genomics software. This allows much greater flexibility in locus handling and has the ability to handle whole genome data. |

The isolate database has been normalized so that PubMed id values are now stored within their own table, rather than within fields in the isolate table. This means that now any number of papers can be associated with each isolate. The submission system now allows you to select a paper and submit a list of isolate id numbers that should be associated with it. |

Submissions to the Campylobacter database should now be sent using the automated submissions system. This enables us to use a team of curators. |
| 27/07/2004 |
A list of recent publications that use or mention MLST in Campylobacter research is now generated automatically every day, providing an overview of the latest research utilising this technique. |

Website layout integrated into the pubmlst.org style. |

Advanced breakdown of isolate datasets is now available following a query. One field can be broken down by another, e.g. clonal complexes by year. You can also determine the frequencies of unique combinations of fields. |
| 12/12/2003 |
The Campylobacter MLST databases are now mirrored at http://ukmirror1.pubmlst.org/campylobacter/. |

When displaying full information about an isolate following a search, if
available the full citation is now displayed rather than just a PubMed id. |

There is a new script available on the PubMLST (isolate) database that
enables a user to query the database by cited publication. |
| 28/06/2002 |
There is a new script available on the PubMLST (isolate) database that
enables a user to export full isolate information from a search as a
tab-delimited text file. These can be easily imported into
spreadsheets or other analysis packages. A new button will appear at
the bottom of the isolate table when displaying data using the 'Browse
database' page. |
| 23/05/2002 |
There is a new script available on the PubMLST (isolate)
database that provides a detailed breakdown of a displayed
dataset. A new link will appear at the bottom of the isolate table
when displaying data using the 'Browse database' page. |

A new server has been set up where the database has been
split so that the allelic profiles and isolate data are stored
separately. This enables multiple isolate databases to be set up,
all of which can connect to the profiles database (either locally or via
the Internet) to query allelic profiles and allele sequences.
These isolate databases may be public or private and can represent true
populations of bacteria, unlike the previous database that held data on
whichever isolates were submitted. The previous database has
become the PubMLST isolate database. Please contact the webmaster
if you want further details about setting up your own isolate database
that can connect to the profiles database via the Internet. |
