Phylogeographical analysis of the dominant multidrug-resistant H58 clade of Salmonella Typhi identifies inter- and intracontinental transmission events

Vanessa K. Wong, +93 more
- 01 Jun 2015 - 
TL;DR: This whole-genome sequence analysis of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi identifies a single dominant MDR lineage, H58, that has emerged and spread throughout Asia and Africa over the last 30 years, and identifies numerous transmissions of H58.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-scale rates of evolutionary change in bacteria.

TL;DR: The robustly estimated evolutionary rates spanned several orders of magnitude, from approximately 10−5 to 10−8 nucleotide substitutions per site year−1, and variation was negatively associated with sampling time, with this relationship best described by an exponential decay curve.
Journal ArticleDOI

ISMapper: identifying transposase insertion sites in bacterial genomes from short read sequence data

TL;DR: The utility of ISMapper was further demonstrated by profiling genome-wide IS6110 insertions in 138 publicly available Mycobacterium tuberculosis genomes, revealing lineage-specific insertions and multiple insertion hotspots.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trycycler: consensus long-read assemblies for bacterial genomes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a tool which produces a consensus assembly from multiple input assemblies of the same genome using manual intervention, which is not deterministic and requires multiple users to converge on similar assemblies.
