Campylobacteris a leading causing of bacterial foodborne and zoonotic illnesses in the USA. Pulsed-field gene electrophoresis (PFGE) and 7-gene multilocus sequence typing (MLST) have been historically used to differentiate sporadic from outbreakCampylobacterisolates. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has been shown to provide superior resolution and concordance with epidemiological data when compared with PFGE and 7-gene MLST during outbreak investigations. In this study, we evaluated epidemiological concordance for high-quality SNP (hqSNP), core genome (cg)MLST and whole genome (wg)MLST to cluster or differentiate outbreak-associated and sporadicCampylobacter jejuniandCampylobacter coliisolates. Phylogenetic hqSNP, cgMLST and wgMLST analyses were also compared using Baker’s gamma index (BGI) and cophenetic correlation coefficients. Pairwise distances comparing all three analysis methods were compared using linear regression models. Our results showed that 68/73 sporadicC. jejuniandC. coliisolates were differentiated from outbreak-associated isolates using all three methods. There was a high correlation between cgMLST and wgMLST analyses of the isolates; the BGI, cophenetic correlation coefficient, linear regression modelR2and Pearson correlation coefficients were >0.90. The correlation was sometimes lower comparing hqSNP analysis to the MLST-based methods; the linear regression modelR2and Pearson correlation coefficients were between 0.60 and 0.86, and the BGI and cophenetic correlation coefficient were between 0.63 and 0.86 for some outbreak isolates. We demonstrated thatC. jejuniandC. coliisolates clustered in concordance with epidemiological data using WGS-based analysis methods. Discrepancies between allele and SNP-based approaches may reflect the differences between how genomic variation (SNPs and indels) are captured between the two methods. Since cgMLST examines allele differences in genes that are common in most isolates being compared, it is well suited to surveillance: searching large genomic databases for similar isolates is easily and efficiently done using allelic profiles. On the other hand, use of an hqSNP approach is much more computer intensive and not scalable to large sets of genomes. If further resolution between potential outbreak isolates is needed, wgMLST or hqSNP analysis can be used.
