Severe pertussis infection in infants less than 6 months of age: clinical manifestations and molecular characterization [PDF]
, 2017 We conducted a study to determine the main traits of pertussis among unimmunized infants less than 6 months of age. From August 2012 to March 2015, 141 nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) were collected from infants with respiratory symptoms attending 2

Antimicrobial Resistance in Bordetella bronchiseptica
Microbiology Spectrum, 2018 ABSTRACT Bordetella bronchiseptica is involved in respiratory tract infections mainly in dogs and pigs but may also cause infections in humans. Valid and representative data on antimicrobial susceptibility of B. bronchiseptica is rare.

Genetic relatedness and antimicrobial susceptibility of porcine respiratory tract pathogens Streptococcus suis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida [PDF]
, 2019 Streptococcus suis is a Gram-positive bacterium and a commensal colonizing the porcine respiratory tract. However, some serotypes have a higher virulence and can cause pneumonia, meningitis, septicaemia, arthritis, endocarditis, polyserositis or abortion

Detection of small RNAs in Bordetella pertussis and identification of a novel repeated genetic element [PDF]
, 2011 Background Small bacterial RNAs (sRNAs) have been shown to participate in the regulation of gene expression and have been identified in numerous prokaryotic species. Some of them are involved in the regulation of virulence in pathogenic bacteria. So far,

DGR mutagenic transposition occurs via hypermutagenic reverse transcription primed by nicked template RNA. [PDF]
, 2017 Diversity-generating retroelements (DGRs) are molecular evolution machines that facilitate microbial adaptation to environmental changes. Hypervariation occurs via a mutagenic retrotransposition process from a template repeat (TR) to a variable repeat ...
