TL;DR: A new Resistomes & Variants module provides analysis and statistical summary of in silico predicted resistance variants from 82 pathogens and over 100 000 genomes, able to summarize predicted resistance using the information included in CARD, identify trends in AMR mobility and determine previously undescribed and novel resistance variants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced annotations and features for comparing thousands of Pseudomonas genomes in the Pseudomonas genome database
Geoffrey L. Winsor,Emma Griffiths,Raymond Lo,Bhavjinder K. Dhillon,Julie A. Shay,Fiona S. L. Brinkman +5 more
TL;DR: To aid analysis of potentially thousands of complete and draft genome assemblies, this database and analysis platform was upgraded to integrate curated genome annotations and isolate metadata with enhanced tools for larger scale comparative analysis and visualization.
Journal ArticleDOI

James W. Kronstad,Rodgoun Attarian,Brigitte Cadieux,Jaehyuk Choi,Cletus D'Souza,Emma Griffiths,Jennifer M. H. Geddes,Guanggan Hu,Won Hee Jung,Matthias Kretschmer,Sanjay Saikia,Joyce Wang +11 more
TL;DR: Cryptococcus neoformans is generally considered to be an opportunistic fungal pathogen because of its tendency to infect immunocompromised individuals, particularly those infected with HIV as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expanding the soil antibiotic resistome: exploring environmental diversity.
TL;DR: An unexpected density of resistance genes in the environment: the antibiotic resistome is revealed, which challenges the current understanding of antibiotic resistance and provides both barriers and opportunities for antimicrobial drug discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
FoodOn: a harmonized food ontology to increase global food traceability, quality control and data integration.

TL;DR: A group of international scientists give a detailed description of FoodOn, a-consortium-driven project to build a comprehensive food ontology that covers vocabulary from farm to fork, and addresses current gaps in food terminology and focuses on human and domesticated animal food description.
