A new version of Kleborate, our Klebsiella-focused genotyping tool, has been released!
Version 3 is faster, mainly because of updates to Kaptive which we use for capsule (K) and O typing. We have refactored the code base to introduce a modular approach, making Kleborate more flexible to run and easier to develop. Look out for new modules for Klebsiella oxytoca and E. coli – coming soon.
Kleborate v3 is available in GitHub and is included in the latest versions of Pathogenwatch and Bactopia, and the Kleborate tutorial.
Thanks to Mary Maranga for doing the bulk of the coding, and also to Ryan Wick for kicking on the modular rewrite, and Kara Tsang & Maggie Lam for updating and testing AMR & virulence databases.
