Transfer of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
, 2017 Staphylococcus aureus is a serious human pathogen with remarkable adaptive powers. Antibiotic-resistant clones rapidly emerge mainly by acquisition of antibiotic-resistance genes from other S. aureus strains or even from other genera.

Bio-Control of Salmonella Enteritidis in Foods Using Bacteriophages
Viruses, 2015 Two lytic phages, vB_SenM-PA13076 (PA13076) and vB_SenM-PC2184 (PC2184), were isolated from chicken sewage and characterized with host strains Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) ATCC13076 and CVCC2184, respectively.

Hydrodynamics of bacteriophage migration along bacterial flagella [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Bacteriophage viruses, one of the most abundant entities in our planet, lack the ability to move independently. Instead, they crowd fluid environments in anticipation of a random encounter with a bacterium. Once they land on the cell body of their victim, they are able to eject their genetic material inside the host cell.

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Escherichia coli pathotype virulotyping to assess if combined top soil improver and water inputs would potentially lead to hybrid strains with shuffled virulence features in ready‐to‐eat vegetables. This is to support the transition toward safe and sustainable food production systems.

Bacterial viruses enable their host to acquire antibiotic resistance genes from neighbouring cells [PDF]
, 2016 Prophages are quiescent viruses located in the chromosomes of bacteria. In the human pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus, prophages are omnipresent and are believed to be responsible for the spread of some antibiotic resistance genes.

Viruses, 2019 Phages infecting members of the opportunistic human pathogen, Salmonella enterica, are widespread in natural environments and offer a potential source of agents that could be used for controlling populations of this bacterium; yet, relatively little is ...

Molecular techniques to characterize the invA genes of Salmonella spp. for pathogen inactivation study in composting [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 The relatively low concentration of pathogen indicators, such Salmonella, in composting sometimes causes a problem with detection when using the conventional techniques. The presence of viable but non-culturable (VBNC) organisms is also a potential problem with Salmonella detection when using conventional techniques.

Effects of Noise on Ecological Invasion Processes: Bacteriophage-mediated Competition in Bacteria [PDF]
, 2006 Pathogen-mediated competition, through which an invasive species carrying and transmitting a pathogen can be a superior competitor to a more vulnerable resident species, is one of the principle driving forces influencing biodiversity in nature.

iMeta, EarlyView.In this study, we found evidence of phage‐mediated horizontal transfer of virulence genes in Salmonella enterica in global habitats from a molecular evolutionary perspective. Notably, csrA, a global regulator in Salmonella enterica, curbed horizontal gene transfer by inhibiting the cyclization and release of prophage.

Transcriptional adaptation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis within macrophages: Insights into the phagosomal environment [PDF]
, 2003 Little is known about the biochemical environment in phagosomes harboring an infectious agent. To assess the state of this organelle we captured the transcriptional responses of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in macrophages from wild-type and nitric ...
