Journal ArticleDOI
Multilocus Sequence Typing of Klebsiella pneumoniae Nosocomial Isolates
TL;DR: A multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme was developed for Klebsiella pneumoniae and provided unambiguous data useful for the epidemiology of K. pneumoniae isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The population structure of Acinetobacter baumannii: expanding multiresistant clones from an ancestral susceptible genetic pool.
TL;DR: Restricted amounts of diversity and a star-like phylogeny reveal that A. baumannii is a genetically compact species that suffered a severe bottleneck in the recent past, possibly linked to a restricted ecological niche.
Journal ArticleDOI
Virulent clones of Klebsiella pneumoniae: identification and evolutionary scenario based on genomic and phenotypic characterization.
Sylvain Brisse,Cindy Fevre,Virginie Passet,Sylvie Issenhuth-Jeanjean,Régis Tournebize,Laure Diancourt,Patrick A. D. Grimont +6 more
TL;DR: The results reveal the existence of important virulent clones associated with specific infections and provide an evolutionary framework for research into the links between clones, virulence and other genomic features in K. pneumoniae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenetic and genomic diversity of human bacteremic Escherichia coli strains
Françoise Jauréguy,Françoise Jauréguy,Luce Landraud,Virginie Passet,Laure Diancourt,Eric Frapy,Ghislaine Guigon,Etienne Carbonnelle,Olivier Lortholary,Olivier Lortholary,Olivier Clermont,Erick Denamur,Bertrand Picard,Xavier Nassif,Sylvain Brisse +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that human bacteremia strains distribute over the entire span of E. coli phylogenetic diversity and that CCs represent important phylogenetic units for pathogenesis and comparative genomics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of the Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-Acinetobacter baumannii complex with the proposal of Acinetobacter pittii sp. nov. (formerly Acinetobacter genomic species 3) and Acinetobacter nosocomialis sp. nov. (formerly Acinetobacter genomic species 13TU).
Alexandr Nemec,Lenka Krizova,Martina Maixnerova,Tanny J. K. van der Reijden,Pieter Deschaght,Virginie Passet,Mario Vaneechoutte,Sylvain Brisse,Lenie Dijkshoorn +8 more
TL;DR: The genomic distinctness and monophyly of the individual species of the Acinetobacter baumannii complex were supported and some degree of differentiation between them could be made on the basis of growth at different temperatures and of assimilation of malonate, l-tartrate levulinate or citraconate.
