The paper analyzes shotgun metagenomic data from four Irish Integrated Constructed Wetlands to characterize microbial dynamics and antimicrobial resistance gene reduction in wastewater treatment.

The paper identifies a novel mcr-13.1 gene in E. coli from grassland, showing its presence on an IncFIB plasmid and its resistance to colistin.

This paper analyzes STEC population structure and host-disease associations using whole genome sequencing of 3,418 isolates from 11 European countries, identifying distinct subpopulations linked to disease severity.

The paper investigates how altered start codon usage modulates the general stress response and virulence in Listeria monocytogenes by analyzing mutations in regulatory genes and genome-wide start codon usage patterns.
