Ciprofloxacin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae: phenotype prediction from genotype and global distribution of resistance determinants

The paper develops a rules-based classifier to predict ciprofloxacin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae from genotype data and demonstrates its global distribution association with quinolone consumption.

Genetic basis for antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli isolated from household water in municipal Ibadan, Nigeria

This study characterizes antimicrobial resistance and virulence genes in E. coli isolated from household water in Ibadan, Nigeria, finding multidrug resistance and diarrheagenic genes more common in dry season isolates.

Whole genome Sequencing Reveals Enterobacter hormaechei as a key Bloodstream Pathogen in six tertiary care hospitals in southwestern Nigeria.

This study uses whole genome sequencing to identify Enterobacter hormaechei as the most common bloodstream pathogen in Nigerian hospitals, revealing its diversity and potential outbreaks.

Slow-growing Salmonella enterica Typhi mis-identified as Salmonella Gallinarum in Ibadan, Nigeria

This study identifies slow-growing Salmonella Typhi misidentified as S. Gallinarum in Nigeria, showing the need for extended motility testing and molecular confirmation.

The TyphiNET data visualisation dashboard: Unlocking Salmonella Typhi genomics data to support public health

The paper introduces TyphiNET, a dashboard for exploring Typhi genomics data to support public health decisions on antimicrobial resistance and vaccine implementation.

Diversity, functional classification and genotyping of SHV β-lactamases in Klebsiella pneumoniae

This paper reclassifies SHV β-lactamase alleles in K. pneumoniae genomes based on mutations, improving genotype-phenotype understanding and updating the Kleborate tool.
