Transmissible strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa have been described for cystic fibrosis
(CF) and may be associated with a worse prognosis. Using a comprehensive strain biobank …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronic lung infections are the major cause of morbidity and
mortality associated with cystic fibrosis. For many years, the consensus was that cystic …

Chronic lower airway infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major contributor to
morbidity and mortality in individuals suffering from the genetic disease cystic fibrosis (CF) …

Background/Methods The molecular epidemiology of the chronic airway infections with
Pseudomonas aeruginosa in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) was investigated by cross …

Background: During its persistence in cystic fibrosis (CF) airways, P. aeruginosa develops a
series of phenotypic changes by the accumulation of pathoadaptive mutations. A better …

The ability to establish lifelong persistent infections is a fundamental aspect of the
interactions between many pathogenic microorganisms and their mammalian hosts. One …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen and an important cause of infection,
particularly amongst cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. While specific strains capable of patient-to …

Background: Chronic pulmonary infection with transmissible Pseudomonas aeruginosa
strains in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) has been reported, raising issues of cross …

To characterise Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations during chronic lung infections of non-
cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis patients, we used whole-genome sequencing to 1) assess the …
