Draft Genome Sequences of Biofilm-Forming and Non-Biofilm-Forming Nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica Serovars

چکیده
The genetic basis for biofilm formation among nontyphoidal salmonellae (NTS) remains poorly understood. This draft genome submission provides initial insights on the genetic differences between biofilm-forming and non-biofilm-forming clinical and environmental NTS serovars.

Draft Genome Sequence and Annotation of Phyllosphere-Persisting Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Serovar Livingstone Strain CKY-S4, Isolated from an Urban Lake in Regina, Canada
Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Livingstone. This S. Livingstone strain CKY-S4 displayed biofilm formation and cellulose production and could persist on lettuce. This genome may help the study of mechanisms by which enteric pathogens colonize food crops.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of 23 Salmonella enterica Strains Isolated from Cattle in Ibadan, Nigeria, Representing 21 Salmonella Serovars
To provide a better understanding of the diversity of Salmonella enterica, we report the assembled genome sequences of 23 Salmonella enterica strains isolated from fecal samples of cattle in Nigeria comprising 21 different Salmonella serovars.
متن کاملDifferences in attachment of Salmonella enterica serovars to cabbage and lettuce leaves.
This study investigated the ability of five Salmonella enterica serovars to attach to and colonize intact and cut lettuce (Iceberg, Romaine) and cabbage surfaces. Biofilm formation and attachment of Salmonella serovars to intact and cut leaves were determined. Populations of loosely and strongly attached Salmonella were obtained to calculate the attachment strength (S(R)). Biofilm formation, as...
متن کاملVariations in motility and biofilm formation of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi
BACKGROUND Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) exhibits unique characteristics as an intracellular human pathogen. It causes both acute and chronic infection with various disease manifestations in the human host only. The principal factors underlying the unique lifestyle of motility and biofilm forming ability of S. Typhi remain largely unknown. The main objective of this study was to ...
متن کاملBiofilm forming abilities of Salmonella are correlated with persistence in fish meal- and feed factories
BACKGROUND Feed contaminated with Salmonella spp. constitutes a risk of Salmonella infections in animals, and subsequently in the consumers of animal products. Salmonella are occasionally isolated from the feed factory environment and some clones of Salmonella persist in the factory environment for several years. One hypothesis is that biofilm formation facilitates persistence by protecting bac...
