Journal ArticleDOI
Non-Cholera Vibrios: The Microbial Barometer of Climate Change.
TL;DR: It is argued that the growth of pathogenic vibrios in the natural environment is largely dictated by temperature, and this group of pathogens represents an important and tangible barometer of climate change in marine systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
AMRFinderPlus and the Reference Gene Catalog facilitate examination of the genomic links among antimicrobial resistance, stress response, and virulence.
Michael Feldgarden,Vyacheslav Brover,Narjol Gonzalez-Escalona,Jonathan G. Frye,Julie Haendiges,Daniel H. Haft,Maria Hoffmann,James B. Pettengill,Arjun B. Prasad,Glenn E. Tillman,Gregory H. Tyson,William Klimke +11 more
TL;DR: The Reference Gene Catalog (RGC) as discussed by the authors has been extended to include putative acid, biocide, metal, stress resistance genes, in addition to virulence genes and species-specific point mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of molecular phylogenetics of Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains by multilocus sequence typing
Narjol Gonzalez-Escalona,Narjol Gonzalez-Escalona,Jaime Martinez-Urtaza,Jaime Romero,Romilio T. Espejo,Lee-Ann Jaykus,Angelo DePaola +6 more
TL;DR: The data reported in this study indicate that V. parahaemolyticus is genetically diverse with a semiclonal population structure and an epidemic structure similar to that of Vibrio cholerae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibrio parahaemolyticus diarrhea, Chile, 1998 and 2004.
Narjol Gonzalez-Escalona,Viviana Cachicas,Claudia Acevedo,Maria Luisa Rioseco,Juan A. Vergara,Felipe C. Cabello,Jaime Romero,Romilio T. Espejo +7 more
TL;DR: Analysis of clinical isolates of Vibrio parahaemolyticus from outbreaks in Chile in the cities of Puerto Montt in 2004 and in Antofagasta in 1998 indicated that 23 of 24 isolates belonged to the pandemic clonal complex that emerged in Southeast Asia in 1996.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracing Origins of the Salmonella Bareilly Strain Causing a Food-borne Outbreak in the United States.

Brown +24 more
TL;DR: These data represent the first report fully integrating WGS analysis with geographic mapping and a novel use of transmission networks, and showed that WGS vastly improves the ability to delimit the scope and source of bacterial food-borne contamination events.
