TLDR
The first genome sequence of S. pseudintermedius is reported, which shows the presence of numerous virulence factors akin to those of the related human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus.Abstract:
Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a member of the coagulase-positive staphylococci and is the commonest cause of canine pyoderma. We report the first genome sequence of S. pseudintermedius, which shows the presence of numerous virulence factors akin to those of the related human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus.read more

TL;DR: The multiclonal nature of the emm12 scarlet fever isolates suggests that factors such as mobile genetic elements, environmental factors, and host immune status may have contributed to the 2011Scarlet fever outbreak in Hong Kong.

Systematic Review on Global Epidemiology of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius: Inference of Population Structure from Multilocus Sequence Typing Data.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius has an epidemic population structure, in which five successful MRSP lineages with specific traits regarding antimicrobial resistance, genetic diversity and geographical distribution have emerged upon a weakly clonal background through acquisition of SCCmec and other mobile genetic elements.

Genomic insights into the rapid emergence and evolution of MDR in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius
Alex J. McCarthy,Ewan M. Harrison,Kinga I. Stanczak-Mrozek,Bernadette Leggett,Andrew S. Waller,Mark A. Holmes,David H. Lloyd,Jodi A. Lindsay,Anette Loeffler +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that MDR MRSP evolved rapidly by the acquisition of a very limited number of MGEs and mutations, and that the use of many classes of antimicrobials may co-select for the spread and emergence of MDR and XDR strains.

TL;DR: A fully automated service for annotating bacterial and archaeal genomes that identifies protein-encoding, rRNA and tRNA genes, assigns functions to the genes, predicts which subsystems are represented in the genome, uses this information to reconstruct the metabolic network and makes the output easily downloadable for the user.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in veterinary medicine.
TL;DR: The relative importance of these staphylococci on different animal species varies, as do the concerns about zoonotic transmission, yet it is clear that both present a challenge to veterinary medicine.
