The broad ecological range of Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium is associated with genomic diversification

This study analyzes 595 Salmonella Typhimurium genomes to show that food animal isolates have more open pangenomes and antimicrobial resistance genes, with swine isolates showing the most diversity and plasmid prevalence.

Assessment of a Passive Sampler for Aquifer Microbial Community Profiling and Comparison of Porous Media Applied in a Managed Recharge Scenario

The paper evaluates a passive sampler for aquifer microbial community profiling and compares porous media in a managed recharge scenario, finding native aquifer sediment best reflects microbial dynamics.

Motile and non-motile Listeria species adopt distinct genomic and ecological strategies to achieve broad geographic ranges in soil

This study compares genomic and ecological strategies of motile and non-motile Listeria species to explain their geographic range expansion in soil.

Disentangling the impacts of abiotic and biotic environmental factors anddispersal dynamics on the pangenome fluidity of bacterial pathogens

This study investigates how environmental factors and dispersal dynamics influence pangenome fluidity in Listeria monocytogenes across three evolutionary lineages.

Evidence of horizontal gene transfer and environmental selection impacting antibiotic resistance evolution in soil-dwelling Listeria

This study identifies horizontal gene transfer and environmental selection as key factors in the evolution of antibiotic resistance genes in soil-dwelling Listeria species.
