Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is recommended that Salmonella classification by serotyping should be replaced by MLST or its equivalents as it confounded genetically unrelated isolates and failed to recognize natural evolutionary groupings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of adenoviruses and rotaviruses in drinking water sources used in rural areas of Benin, West Africa.

TL;DR: Viral contamination was correlated with the presence of latrines in the vicinity of drinking water sources, indicating the importance of appropriate decision support systems in these socioeconomic prospering regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic diversity of Salmonella enterica -The UoWUCC 10K genomes project
Mark Achtman,Zhemin Zhou,Nabil-Fareed Alikhan,William Tyne,Julian Parkhill,Martin Cormican,Chien-Shun Chiou,Mia Torpdahl,Eva Litrup,D.M. Prendergast,John E. Moore,Sam Strain,Christian Kornschober,Richard J. Meinersmann,Alexandra Uesbeck,François-Xavier Weill,Aidan Coffey,Helene Andrews-Polymenis,Roy Curtiss Rd,Séamus Fanning +19 more
TL;DR: The University of Warwick/University College Cork project greatly extends the geographic sources, dates and core genomic diversity of publicly available S. enterica genomes, and confirms the polyphyletic nature of multiple serovars while showing that discrete clusters with geographical specificity can be reliably recognized by hierarchical clustering approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correction: Multilocus Sequence Typing as a Replacement for Serotyping in Salmonella enterica.

TL;DR: This research presents a novel probabilistic procedure that allows for direct measurement of the response of the immune system to earthquake-triggered landsliding.
