Does habitat variability really promote metabolic network modularity? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The hypothesis that variability in natural habitats promotes modular organization is widely accepted for cellular networks. However, results of some data analyses and theoretical studies have begun to cast doubt on the impact of habitat variability on ...

Horizontal gene transfer overrides mutation in Escherichia coli colonizing the mammalian gut
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Colonization of the mammalian gut by trillions of commensal bacteria starts early in life and contributes to host health. However, colonization by pathogens can be the launching pad for infection.

Prokaryotic ancestry and gene fusion of a dual localized peroxiredoxin in malaria parasites
Microbial Cell, 2015 Horizontal gene transfer has emerged as a crucial driving force for the evolution of eukaryotes. This also includes Plasmodium falciparum and related economically and clinically relevant apicomplexan parasites, whose rather small genomes have been shaped

Assessing the occurrence and transfer dynamics of ESBL/pAmpC-producing Escherichia coli across the broiler production pyramid [PDF]
, 2019 Extended-spectrum \u3b2-lactamase (ESBL)- and plasmid mediated AmpC-type cephalosporinase (pAmpC)-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL/pAmpC E. coli) in food-producing animals is a major public health concern.
