Disseminated Nocardia farcinica infection presenting as a paravertebral abscess in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2019
Disseminated Nocardia infections occur particularly in immunosuppressed hosts and are most often due to Nocardia farcinica, Nocardia nova, and Nocardia cyriacigeorgica. Here, we report an unusual case of disseminated N.

Genomic analyses confirm close relatedness between Rhodococcus defluvii and Rhodococcus equi (Rhodococcus hoagii) [PDF]

, 2014
Rhodococcus defluvii strain Ca11T was isolated from a bioreactor involved in extensive phosphorus removal. We have sequenced the whole genome of this strain and our comparative genomic and phylogenetic analyses confirm its close relatedness with ...

Comparative Genomics and Metabolomics in the Genus Nocardia

mSystems, 2020
Our work emphasizes that Nocardia represent a prolific source for natural products rivaling better-characterized genera such as Streptomyces or Amycolatopsis. Furthermore, we showed that large-scale analysis of biosynthetic gene clusters using similarity

Genotypic and phenotypic prevalence of Nocardia species in Iran: First systematic review and meta-analysis of data accumulated over years 1992-2021.

PLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundNocardia species belong to the aerobic actinomycetes group of bacteria which are gram-positive and partially acid-fast Bacilli. These bacteria may sometimes be associated with nosocomial infections.
