Use of Genome Scale Metabolic Reconstructions of Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) phylogroups for the identification of lineage-specific metabolic pathways

The paper constructs genome-scale metabolic models for APEC phylogroups B2, C, and G, identifying a lineage-specific metabolic pathway in phylogroup C that distinguishes it from other groups.

High-risk clonal groups of Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) demonstrate heterogeneous phenotypic characteristics in vitro and in vivo

This study compares phenotypic differences among high-risk APEC clonal groups in vitro and in vivo, finding variation in invasion, survival, and virulence.

Global phylogenomic analysis of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius reveals genomic and prophage diversity in multi-drug resistant lineages

This study analyzes global S. pseudintermedius genomes to identify genomic and prophage diversity in multidrug-resistant lineages, showing prophage integration and antiviral systems correlate with disease success.
