Local adaptation drives the diversification of effectors in the fungal wheat pathogen Parastagonospora nodorum in the United States

open access: yes, 2019
Filamentous fungi rapidly evolve in response to environmental selection pressures in part due to their genomic plasticity. Parastagonospora nodorum, a fungal pathogen of wheat and causal agent of septoria nodorum blotch, responds to selection pressure ...

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Correlation between antimicrobial resistance and virulence in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae at colonization and infection stages

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases
Objective Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has emerged as a critical global public health. To investigate the dynamic changes of drug resistance genes and virulence traits in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae during colonization-

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Virulence Gene Regulation

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2014
ABSTRACT Coordinated expression of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli virulence genes enables the bacterium to cause hemorrhagic colitis and the complication known as hemolytic-uremic syndrome. Horizontally acquired genes and those common to E. coli contribute to the disease process,

Occurrence of virulence genes in multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from humans, animals, and the environment: One health perspective.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Escherichia coli is one of the critical One Health pathogens due to its vast array of virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes. This study used multiplex PCR to determine the occurrence of virulence genes bfp, ompA, traT, eaeA, and stx1 among 50 ...

Distribution of Virulence Factors in Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci Isolated from Clinical and Intestinal Samples

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Virulence factors in enterococci play an important role in the pathogenesis of enterococcal infection and colonization. The aim was to determine the prevalence of genes encoding virulence factors in VRE from clinical and intestinal samples.

MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION OF Aeromonas hydrophila STRAINS RECOVERED FROM KAFRELSHEIKH FISH FARMS

open access: yesSlovenian Veterinary Research, 2019
The aim of this study was to recover Aeromonas hydrophila from Kafrelsheikh tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) farms and to study its virulence. Adult fish (n = 100) exhibiting the onset of clinical signs were bacteriologically examined using aeromonas ...

Gene transfer in the GI tract and oral cavity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Gene transfer is important in spreading antibiotic resistance and other traits such as virulence factors. In this review the molecular mechanisms of gene transfer are outlined and the biological consequences of bacterial gene transfer in the GI tract and

The dual nature of trehalose in citrus canker disease: A virulence factor for Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri and a trigger for plant defence responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) is a bacterial pathogen that causes citrus canker in susceptible Citrus spp. The Xcc genome contains genes encoding enzymes from three separate pathways of trehalose biosynthesis.
