This study characterizes the quorum sensing system in Hafnia alvei FB1, showing its role in cell division, nutrient uptake, and antibiotic resistance through genomic and transcriptomic analyses.

The paper analyzes DNA methylation patterns in seven Escherichia coli ST101 strains to identify methylome diversity linked to mobile genetic elements and their impact on functional differences between nearly identical isolates.

This study characterizes the genomic context of blaNDM-1 in E. coli ST101 isolates using long-read sequencing, revealing two clades with distinct resistance profiles and plasmid-mediated blaNDM-1 carriage mechanisms.

The paper uses three whole genome sequencing technologies to analyze a carbapenemase-producing Enterobacter hormaechei outbreak, identifying transmission dynamics and plasmid context.

The paper sequences the genome of Pandoraea pnomenusa RB38 and identifies a novel luxI/R homolog pair, PpnI and ppnR, which synthesizes C8-HSL.

The paper identifies AHL production and luxI/R homologues in Cedecea neteri SSMD04, reporting the first discovery of these features in this species.

The paper analyzes a Malaysian mangrove soil metagenome to reveal high microbial diversity and potential pathogen reservoirs.
