A rationally designed oral vaccine induces Immunoglobulin A in the murine gut that directs the evolution of attenuated Salmonella variants
M. Diard, E. Bakkeren, D. Hoces, V. Lentsch, M. Arnoldini, F. Boehi, K. Schumann-Moor, J. Adamcik, L. Piccoli, A. Lanzavecchia, B. Stadtmueller, N. Donohue, M. Vanderwoude, P. Viollier, L. Falquet, , E. Slack
This paper shows that an oral vaccine inducing IgA in mice can direct Salmonella to evolve into less virulent variants with shorter O-antigens.

Pathogen invasion-dependent tissue reservoirs and plasmid-encoded antibiotic degradation boost plasmid spread in the gut
E. Bakkeren, J. A. Herter, J. S. Huisman, Y. Steiger, E. Gul, J. P. M. Newson, A. O. Brachmann, J. Piel, R. R. Regoes, S. Bonhoeffer, M. Diard, W.-D. Hardt
This study shows that plasmid dissemination in the gut is enhanced by antibiotic degradation in the lumen and cycling between gut and tissue reservoirs in Salmonella Typhimurium.

Cooperative virulence can emerge via horizontal gene transfer but is stabilized by transmission
E. Bakkeren, E. Gul, J. S. Huisman, Y. Steiger, A. Rocker, W.-D. Hardt, M. Diard
This study shows that horizontal gene transfer can enable virulence in Salmonella Typhimurium, but cooperative virulence is stabilized by transmission dynamics and population bottlenecks.

Clinical extended-spectrum beta-lactamase antibiotic resistance plasmids have diverse transfer rates and can spread in the absence of antibiotic selection
F. Benz, J. S. Huisman, E. Bakkeren, J. A. Herter, T. Stadler, M. Ackermann, M. Diard, A. Egli, A. R. Hall, W.-D. Hardt, S. Bonhoeffer
This study quantifies the conjugative transfer dynamics of ESBL plasmids in vitro and in vivo, showing variation in transfer efficiency and potential for predicting plasmid spread.
