RESUMEN
Variable-number tandem repeat analysis (VNTR) of 25 loci was used for molecular typing of the Francisella tularensis strains isolated from different regions of Russia and the former Soviet Union. This approach allowed us to subdivide F. tularensis subspecies and determine genotype diversity with regard to the geographical prevalence. All 25 loci were examined for their ability to discriminate subspecies and local geographical group. 42 genotypes among the 58 investigated F. tularensis subsp. holarctica isolates were found using cluster VNTR analysis.
