ClustAGE: a tool for clustering and distribution analysis of bacterial accessory genomic elements

BMC Bioinformatics, 2018
Background The non-conserved accessory genome of bacteria can be associated with important adaptive characteristics that can contribute to niche specificity or pathogenicity of strains.

Pandora: nucleotide-resolution bacterial pan-genomics with reference graphs

Genome Biology, 2021
We present pandora, a novel pan-genome graph structure and algorithms for identifying variants across the full bacterial pan-genome. As much bacterial adaptability hinges on the accessory genome, methods which analyze SNPs in just the core genome have ...

Neutral genomic microevolution of a recently emerged pathogen, salmonella enterica serovar agona [PDF]

, 2013
Salmonella enterica serovar Agona has caused multiple food-borne outbreaks of gastroenteritis since it was first isolated in 1952. We analyzed the genomes of 73 isolates from global sources, comparing five distinct outbreaks with sporadic infections as

Genome analysis of a highly virulent serotype 1 strain of streptococcus pneumoniae from West Africa [PDF]

, 2012
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of pneumonia, meningitis, and bacteremia, estimated to cause 2 million deaths annually. The majority of pneumococcal mortality occurs in developing countries, with serotype 1 a leading cause in these areas.

Genomic analysis of Sinorhizobium meliloti LPU63, an acid-tolerant and symbiotically efficient alfalfa-nodulating rhizobia

Frontiers in Agronomy, 2023
The growth and persistence of alfalfa (Medicago sativa), a perennial legume capable of producing high yields of high-quality forage, is reduced in moderately acidic soils.

Phylogenomic analysis of lactobacillus curvatus reveals two lineages distinguished by genes for fermenting plant-derived carbohydrates [PDF]

, 2018
Lactobacillus curvatus is a lactic acid bacterium encountered in many different types of fermented food (meat, seafood, vegetables, and cereals). Although this species plays an important role in the preservation of these foods, few attempts have been ...

The landscape of coadaptation in Vibrio parahaemolyticus

eLife, 2020
Investigating fitness interactions in natural populations remains a considerable challenge. We take advantage of the unique population structure of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a bacterial pathogen of humans and shrimp, to perform a genome-wide screen for ...

The influence of the accessory genome on bacterial pathogen evolution [PDF]

, 2011
Bacterial pathogens exhibit significant variation in their genomic content of virulence factors. This reflects the abundance of strategies pathogens evolved to infect host organisms by suppressing host immunity.

Phylogenomics of Globally Spread Clonal Groups 14 and 15 of Klebsiella pneumoniae

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type 14 (ST14) and ST15 caused outbreaks of CTX-M-15 and/or carbapenemase producers worldwide, but their phylogeny and global dynamics remain unclear. We clarified the evolution of K.
