Application of a core genome sequence typing (cgMLST) pipeline for surveillance of Clostridioides difficile in China

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionClostridioides difficile (C. difficile) is a nosocomial bacterial pathogen that causes antibiotic-associated diarrhea mediated by cellular exotoxins secreted into the intestine during bacterial growth.

Whole genome sequencing of Clostridioides difficile PCR ribotype 046 suggests transmission between pigs and humans.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundA zoonotic association has been suggested for several PCR ribotypes (RTs) of Clostridioides difficile. In central parts of Sweden, RT046 was found dominant in neonatal pigs at the same time as a RT046 hospital C.

Genetic diversity and spatial distribution of Burkholderia mallei by core genome-based multilocus sequence typing analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Burkholderia mallei is the etiological agent of glanders, a highly contagious and often fatal disease in equids. Due to the high genetic clonality of B. mallei, high-resolution typing assays are necessary to differentiate between individual strains. Here

Using Ongoing Wildlife Surveillance Programs to Monitor Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria in the Environment

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Screening of ESBL‐, pAmpC‐ and carbapenemase‐producing Escherichia coli among Swedish wildlife demonstrated a low occurrence of antibiotic resistance in wild animals. Only two ESBL/pAmpC‐producers were detected in red foxes originating from highly populated areas.

Core/Whole Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing and Core Genome SNP-Based Typing of OXA-48-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates From Spain

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Whole-genome sequencing (WGS)-based typing methods have emerged as promising and highly discriminative epidemiological tools. In this study, we combined gene-by-gene allele calling and core genome single nucleotide polymorphism (cgSNP) approaches to ...
