This study examines how antiretroviral therapy affects oral health and microbiome in FIV-infected cats, finding reduced gum inflammation and altered bacterial communities in treated animals.

This study examines how management practices affect Salmonella persistence in poultry litter across three flocks, finding that copper sulfate may select for metal-resistant strains.

The paper examines how broiler house environments and litter management practices influence antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors in Campylobacter isolates from chicken flocks.

The paper develops Haplo-ST, an open-source tool for whole-genome MLST of Listeria monocytogenes, showing it can differentiate isolates from different environments with high sensitivity.

Reads2Resistome is a high-throughput whole-genome sequencing pipeline that assembles and annotates bacterial genomes to characterize the resistome using long or short reads.
