  1. $Numbers of tandem repeats in each locus for Bacillus anthracis isolates are reported. The copy numbers for each locus are calculated as (amplicon size -offset)/repeat size. The amplicon sizes were determined and calculated using ABI 3130 genetic analyzer and rounded with GeneMapper software using a binning code from the Italian genotype database. Offset and repeat sizes are available online [18]http://minisatellites.u-psud.fr/GPMS/.
