The African Mole‐Rat Genus Cryptomys and Its Species: Distinct in Their Genes and Habitats

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTThe African mole‐rat genus Cryptomys comprises five morphologically cryptic lineages distributed across South Africa and in Zimbabwe, historically treated as subspecies of C. hottentotus (C. h. hottentotus, C. h. mahali, C. h. natalensis, C. h. pretoriae and C. h. nimrodi).

Genome characterization and population genetic structure of the zoonotic pathogen, streptococcus canis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background - Streptococcus canis is an important opportunistic pathogen of dogs and cats that can also infect a wide range of additional mammals including cows where it can cause mastitis. It is also an emerging human pathogen.

Systematic and Taxonomic Revision of Ostrea stentina Species Complex (Bivalvia: Ostreidae): New Insights From a Topotype‐Based Integrative Approach

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cryptic marine species complexes with plastic morphology, shallow divergence, and broad distributions are among the hardest taxonomic problems in zoology. The Ostrea stentina complex, reported across the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Indo‐Pacific, is a striking example. We present the first topotype‐anchored integrative revision of this complex,

Core Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing Scheme for Stable, Comparative Analyses of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli Human Disease Isolates

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
Human campylobacteriosis, caused by Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli, remains a leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in many countries, but the epidemiology of campylobacteriosis outbreaks remains poorly defined, largely due to limitations in the ...

Enrichment‐Based Duplex PCR for Early Detection of Potentially Virulent Vibrio harveyi in Aquaculture

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Vibrio harveyi is an important bacterial pathogen in marine aquaculture, responsible for outbreaks affecting a wide range of fish species. Early detection of potentially virulent isolates in fish and environmental samples is essential for effective disease prevention and management, particularly under field conditions where the pathogen may be

Large Nationwide Outbreak of Invasive Listeriosis Associated with Blood Sausage, Germany, 2018–2019

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Invasive listeriosis is a severe foodborne infection in humans and is difficult to control. Listeriosis incidence is increasing worldwide, but some countries have implemented molecular surveillance programs to improve recognition and management of ...

Emergence of a Novel, Phenotypically Difficult‐to‐Detect Vancomycin‐Resistant Enterococcus faecium Clone (ST117/CT7799)

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
A newly emerged vanB‐VREfm clone (ST117/CT7799) causes an ongoing outbreak in southeastern Austria. The cluster is highly homogenous, even for isolates sampled months apart. Resistance is easily missed via disk diffusion, gradient tests, and microdilution. VITEK 2 testing reliably detects vancomycin‐resistance.

Comparative Genomic Analysis of Multidrug‐Resistant Escherichia coli Across Poultry–Human–Environmental Interfaces

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Whole‐genome sequencing analysis of Escherichia coli isolates from broiler, layer and sonali chickens in Bangladesh shown extensive antimicrobial resistance, diverse virulence factors, plasmid‐mediated resistance, and a highly open pangenome. Comparative genomic analyses demonstrated close genetic relationships with global strains, highlighting the One

Candidate targets for Multilocus Sequence Typing of Trypanosoma cruzi: validation using parasite stocks from the Chaco Region and a set of reference strains.

open access: yes, 2012
A Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) scheme was designed and applied to a set of 20 Trypanosoma cruzi stocks belonging to three main discrete typing units (T. cruzi I, V and VI) from a geographically restricted Chagas disease endemic area in Argentina, 12
