Draft Genome Sequence of sp. Strain CaF467b, Isolated from a Pig Manure Storage Tank.

In this report, we present the draft genome sequence of an unclassified strain, CaF467b. This bacterial isolate was recovered from a pig manure storage tank. The draft genome sequence is 1,655,514 bp in length with 1,709 predicted genes and a G+C content of 34.

Mobility of -lactam resistance under ampicillin treatment in gut microbiota suffering from pre-disturbance.

Ingestion of food- or waterborne antibiotic-resistant bacteria may lead to dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the gut microbiota. The gut microbiota often suffers from various disturbances. It is not clear whether and how disturbed microbiota may affect ARG mobility under antibiotic treatments.

Complete Genome Sequence of a Canadian Strain of Raoultella planticola with Metal and Antimicrobial Resistance Genes.

Raoultella planticola is a Gram-negative opportunistic bacterial pathogen associated with hospital-acquired infections in humans. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of one Raoultella planticola strain isolated from Canadian wastewater treatment facilities containing one chromosome and four plasmids with four antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes and four metal resistance gene clusters.

A comparison of fourteen fully characterized mammalian-associated isolates suggests that loss of defense mechanisms contribute to high genomic plasticity and subspecies evolution.

is currently classified into three main subspecies, but only two of these, subspecies and subsp. v originate principally from ruminants where they inhabit different niches and cause distinct pathogenicity. Their importance as pathogens in international trade and reporting is also different yet the criteria defining these properties have never been fully substantiated nor understood.
