The seventh cholera pandemic started in 1961 in Indonesia and spread across the world in
three waves in the decades that followed. Here, we utilised genomic evidence to detail the …

Salmonella enterica serovar Agona (S. Agona) has been increasingly recognised as a
prominent cause of gastroenteritis. This serovar is a strong biofilm former that can undergo …

Abstract The advent of Oxford Nanopore Technologies has undergone significant
improvements in terms of sequencing costs, accuracy, and sequencing read lengths, making …

Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Heidelberg (Salmonella Heidelberg) has

The use of k-mers to capture genetic variation in bacterial genome-wide association studies
(bGWAS) has demonstrated its effectiveness in overcoming the plasticity of bacterial …

The bacterial genome contains numerous repeated sequences that greatly affect its
genomic plasticity. The Escherichia coli K-12 genome contains three copies of the TRIP1 …

Bacterial genomes contain multiple ribosomal RNA operons that by homologous
recombination facilitate genome rearrangements. Here we show that a Staphylococcus …

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi is endemic in Nigeria where S. Gallinarum is rarely
reported. Probable S. Gallinarum was blood-cultured from three Ibadan patients within 10 …
