1. Population structure of Francisella tularensis

Author

Nubel, Ulrich, Reissbrodt, Rolf, Weller, Annette, Grunow, Roland, Porsch-Ozcurumez, Mustafa, Tomaso, Herbert, Hofer, Erwin, Splettstoesser, Wolf, Finke, Ernst-Jurgen, Tschape, Helmut, and Witte, Wolfgang

Abstract

We have sequenced fragments of five metabolic housekeeping genes and two genes encoding outer membrane proteins from 81 isolates of Francisella tularensis, representing all four subspecies. Phylogenetic clustering of gene sequences from F. tularensis subsp, tularensis and F. tularensis subsp, holarctica aligned well with subspecies affiliations. In contrast, F. tularensis subsp, novicida and F. tularensis subsp, mediasiatica were indicated to be phylogenetically incoherent taxa. Incongruent gene trees and mosaic structures of housekeeping genes provided evidence for genetic recombination in F. tularensis.

Abstract

Nine pure or mixed broth media are evaluated for their suitabilities to investigate MICs in a microdilution test of 19 antibacterial agents for lactic acid bacteria (LAB) of the genera Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, Lactococcus and Bifidobacterium. The LAB susceptibility test medium has provided the most optimal medium basis in terms of growth support of nonenterococcal LAN and correct indication of MICs of international control strains.

3. Genotypic diversity, antimicrobial resistance, and virulence factors of human isolates and probiotic cultures constituting two intraspecific groups of Enterococcus faecium isolates

Author

Abstract

Two high-resolution DNA-fingerprinting techniques were used to study the intraspecific relationships among a collection of Enterococcus faecium isolates comprising probiotic cultures and human clinical isolates. The intraspecific genomic groups showed the presence of transferable antibiotic resistance and virulence traits.
