The paper develops a method to trace horizontal gene transfer and persistence of carbapenem resistance genes across bacterial species using genomic data from clinical isolates.

The paper analyzes genome sequences of Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton interdigitale to show that T. rubrum is clonal with limited genetic variation and no evidence of sexual reproduction.

The paper compares the genomes of three wheat rust pathogens to identify gene content variation and divergence in mating loci, highlighting differences in genome size, heterozygosity, and effector expression.
