Methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci: Epidemiological and molecular aspects
(Center Academic Publ Japan, 2007-09-27)
Infections caused by the genus Staphylococcus are of great importance for human health. Staphylococcus species are divided into coagulase-positive staphylococci, represented by S. aureus, a pathogen that can cause infections ...
Mobile genetic elements drive the multidrug resistance and spread of Salmonella serotypes along a poultry meat production line
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2023-03)
The presence of mobile genetic elements in Salmonella isolated from a chicken farm constitutes a potential risk for the appearance of emerging bacteria present in the food industry. These elements contribute to increased ...
Residual concentrations of antimicrobial growth promoters in poultry litter favour plasmid conjugation among Escherichia coli
(2022-01-01)
Considering that plasmid conjugation is a major driver for the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance in bacteria, this study aimed to investigate the effects of residual concentrations of antimicrobial growth promoters ...
A comparative genomic analysis of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis strains reveal hallmarks of mobile genetic elements in the adaptation and accelerated evolution of virulence
(2021-07-01)
Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis (Xaj) is the most significant aboveground walnut bacterial pathogen. Disease management uses copper-based pesticides which induce pathogen resistance. We examined the genetic repertoire ...
Scarce detection of mobile erm genes associated with tetQ in Bacteroides and Parabacteroides from Costa Rica
(2013-06)
The frequency of finding of clindamycin-resistant anaerobic bacteria in clinical samples has doubled from 2008 to 2010 in Costa Rica. To determine whether this increase is due to dissemination of erm genes aided by tetQ ...

Heavy metal resistance strategies of acidophilic bacteria and their acquisition: Importance for biomining and bioremediation
(2013)
Microbial solubilizing of metals in acid environments is successfully used in industrial bioleaching of ores or biomining to extract metals such as copper, gold, uranium and others. This is done mainly by acidophilic and ...
