Book ChapterDOI
Mining the Pseudomonas genome.
TL;DR: It is described here how the Pseudomonas Genome Database and other bioinformatics resources can be leveraged to help PseUDomonas researchers "mine" Pseudomanas genomes, and associated genome-scale data, to facilitate new discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eleven High-Quality Reference Genome Sequences and 360 Draft Assemblies of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Isolates from Human, Food, Animal, and Environmental Sources in Canada.

Laing,Victor P. J. Gannon,Tarah Lynch,Gary Van Domselaar,Gary Van Domselaar,Fiona S. L. Brinkman,Morag R. Graham,Morag R. Graham +18 more
TL;DR: High-quality closed reference genomes for 1 bovine strain and 10 human Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains from serogroups O26, O45, O91, O103, O104, O111, O113, O121, O145, and O157 are reported.
Evolutionary Relationships among Virulence-Associated
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that GacS is important for swarming motility, lipase production, and virulence in mice and had evolved to have partial functional overlaps with PhoQ, a less-related virulence-associated histidine kinase.
Journal ArticleDOI
A statistical approach to high-throughput screening of predicted orthologs
TL;DR: A complementary statistical approach to determining cut-off values is proposed that gives the user an estimated conditional probability that a predicted Ortholuge pair is unusually diverged and improves the specificity of ssd-ortholog prediction for low-quality data sets of predicted orthologs.
FoodOn: A Semantic Ontology Approach for Mapping Foodborne Disease Metadata.

TL;DR: This work describes mapping procedures which can be utilized by organizations and software developers to better enable interoperability between foodborne pathogen surveillance and outbreak management systems.
