The paper develops BTyperDB, a global atlas of Bacillus cereus sensu lato genomes, to improve pathogen surveillance and identify emerging lineages.

This study analyzes 110 Macrococcus genomes to explore their evolution, population structure, and functional potential, focusing on antimicrobial resistance and virulence.

This study identifies and analyzes mcr-like genes, showing they are closely related to intrinsic lipid modification enzymes and evolve through positive selection and genomic context changes.

The paper identifies a multidrug-resistant Salmonella DT104 lineage lacking the ArtAB toxin, circulating in humans and cattle in the U.S., and shows it lost these genes around 1985-1987.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing to analyze Bacillus cereus s.l. strains from meat products in South Africa, showing their potential for intra- and inter-national spread through the food supply chain.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing to analyze Salmonella strains from dairy cattle farms, revealing AMR dynamics and evaluating in silico tools for serotyping and resistance detection.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing to analyze non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica strains from animals and animal products in South Africa, identifying endemic and emerging lineages and antimicrobial resistance patterns.

This study uses phylogenomic analysis to show that cereulide synthetase acquisition and loss events in Group III B. cereus s.l. allow populations to transition between emetic and diarrheal pathogen roles.

The paper evaluates the congruency of a new taxonomic framework for B. cereus group with historical methods using MLST, panC, and WGS data, showing compatibility and providing tools for classification.

This study uses comparative genomics to analyze AMR Salmonella enterica isolates from bovine and human hosts, revealing distinct genetic profiles linked to host and geographic origin.

The paper identifies a novel mcr-9 gene in a multidrug-resistant Salmonella isolate using in silico screening and functional analysis, showing it confers colistin resistance in E. coli.

This paper uses whole-genome sequencing to characterize B. cereus group strains from a foodborne outbreak, identifying emetic and diarrheal isolates and their genetic relationships.
