Description :

The EWET database (EWET-DB) contains genotyping data on the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis, obtained after the analysis of the microsatellite EmsB. A set of information is also avaible on the sampled parasite isolates (host, geographical position, sampling conditions, laboratory of reference, etc.). A web interface provides access to all or part of the data set, perform distance calculation, obtain maps and give new genotyping.
