Hey hey hey! Tomorrow, September 16th at 16:00 UTC, don’t miss the next ISPB virtual seminar! This session will focus on plasmid elimination with great speakers lined up.
Heads up! 📢 The 5th Session of the ISPB Virtual Seminars is tomorrow, from 8:00 to 9:00 UTC. Hope to see you there virtually! #Plasmid#ISPB#VirtualSeminar
Heey! ✋ If you missed the live session of the ISPB Virtual Seminar Series, there's still time to catch up and enjoy the great work of Zhengqing Zhou and Alicia Calvo Villamañán. Huge thanks to the speakers and the organizers!! 🫂
💡This work brings important biological context to advancing bacterial genomics and highlights the significance of the accessory genome in uncovering patterns of pathogen epidemiology and evolution 🦠
- The authors used a Jaccard Index based approach to compute the Typhi pangenome and study the vertical and horizontal evolutionary relationships among the genomes.
- This analysis revealed a non-random pangenome structure that is driven predominantly by the gain and loss of MGEs.

Cigarettes: bad for your health… and for antibiotic resistance, too? 🚭🚭
Fang, Konyali and colleagues have demonstrated that smoking-derived compounds promote the conjugation rates in different environments (artificial lung sputum medium and environmental medium).
Updates are back! We’ll be sharing papers and reviews relevant to our community. Please, feel free to contact us if you’d like us to feature your work. Thanks!! 🧬
