This study shows that loss of type I restriction-modification methyltransferases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa increases fluoroquinolone persistence through enhanced SOS response and slower growth.

The paper shows that a pseudogenization in the cntQ gene alters metal uptake specificity in Yersinia species, shifting from iron to zinc.

This study shows that S. aureus enters a viable but non-culturable state when competing with P. aeruginosa, altering its metabolism and survival strategies in response to antibiotics.

The paper introduces Molecular Xenomonitoring (MX) to detect West Nile and Usutu viruses in mosquito populations, showing it can identify viral circulation before human cases.
